I have the splunk license instance in my system. Is it possible to use same license file to cloud server (not splunkcloud) to migrate?

Sure, if you manage your own cloud deployment, you can move the license when you migrate.
However you cannot do hybrid search on both during the transition (as the same license will detected as duplicate)

And to avoid duplicate license conflict, you can reconnect your license-slaves (on-prem indexers and SH) to your new license master ( cloud)

PS : this answer does not apply to splunkcloud deployments.
