Copy your text to the new template.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

I don't know the templates you are mentioning, you haven't given any links. It is possible that you just have to change the documentclass line, but it is very unlikely. You have two different type areas, different fonts, different sizes, maybe different spacing so yes, you have to align from scratch.

Both use LaTeX, but LaTeX does not have any guideline concerning templates. They are not interchangeable.
