I don't know if nova out of the box would support such a thing. Localhost migration (aka migration within the same host) is not something that is supported by libvirt/KVM. Various files QEMU has on disk are based on the VM name/uuid and you can't have 2 QEMU processes on the host having the files at the same time, which precludes localhost migration working.
