Can I move my contract number to a prepaid line?

i have 31 days left on my contract phone plan. I had a smartphone and it died so i bought a cheap phone  several months ago ive been using to get buy until my contract ends. it will cost me 130 dollars to cancel my phone 31 days early so i am waiting until then to cancel the contract. I bought a prepaid samsung illusion from walmart and i am wanting to send my current contract number to my prepaid phone. Ive read several board postings that said this is possible and talked to a rep on chat that was very helpful and also said it was possible.  What i am wondering now is

Can i go ahead and activate my prepaid phone just to play around with it and use wi-fi? according to the activation guide once i enter my zip i will be given a phone number and account security code for this phone. will i still be able to put my old contract number onto the prepaid phone once it has already been activated? or will this complicate things. Thanks!
