It’s fairly straightforward to modify the [WP Discourse](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse) plugin so that it will publishing existing WordPress comments to Discourse when a post is first published from WordPress to Discourse. A couple of hooks could be added to the plugin so that the modification required for doing this could be added through a separate plugin. The biggest issue with doing it this way is that the posts will be published under the username of an admin user.
