maybe you could export and import as an fbx file and there is an option for importing animation...

The objects in your character sets are usually only the "controllers" that drive the bones in your skeleton. So, as long as those controllers haven't changed, you should be fine. However, seeing that the proportions of the new character will be different, this will mess up any IK translate information within the clip.
An easier way would be to use Maya's retargeting, but even that's a little tricky. When it comes to using animation clips on multiple riggs, this is where MotionBuilder shines over Maya. FBIK for Maya is almost there though.
