Not directly in their entirety.

You can copy and paste (or save as module and merge) the section markers from one project to the other. The views would still need to be created from the project map.

I'm not sure if this would work with details, but I'm not sure it would be too useful either.

You can open the file that has everything set up, delete everything except the secion/elevation lines and detail merkers, merge in the new project.

If you are doing one type or small numebr of types, set the views in the Template. Of course, the problem are always sections and elevations, but you can keep them to and edit as needed.

Or you can take this route for a similar (and easier?) result:

Link you may have done it again!
1. Very good but you can do the same thing with .tpl files, no?
2. The question was if a new project has similarities to another, can one bring in some of the Project Map info like details and View Sets from the old to new?
3. I am on Mac, do you know how your procedure works on Mac?
