Taking into account Ivan and Makrands suggestions – if you did manage to dd the 
image off the EC2 instance you could use qemu-img to convert it from raw to 
qcow2. Your challenge is going to be how to get the raw image out of EC2 and 
onto on premise storage or an S3 bucket.

Overall though – I agree with Erik – the effort this is going to take you is 
possibly better spent rebuilding and automating a fresh rollout on premise. 
Even if you did succeed I could see you having a lot of niggles with the 
exported VMs.

    Take a note that AWS used XEN (Open source) hyeprvisor for EC2. Even if you
    get your VM exported somehow, importing it into ACS on KVM will be an issue.
