Adrian, a PayPal employee and community forum administrator has answered this question on a post asked in February 2012. He has confirmed that 'subscriptions and billing agreements are non-transferable without re-subscribing'.
It seems that because the customers will be paying into a different account, a new subscription must be established, and so the best you can do to avoid losing customers or payments is to carefully manage the transition process.




"As the buyers would technically be paying a different account,
subscriptions and billing agreements are non-transferable without
re-subscribing. Understandably, you'll want to avoid subscriber loss,
so you may want to switch over existing buttons to direct them to your
new account, and then either transition your existing subscribers en
masse at some point (after much advanced notice) or allow them to
expire and then re-sign up." - PayPal_Adrian, PayPal Community Help Forum
