Boot Image from Running Ubuntu

I have a Linux system running in another place, which I use as processing server. Now I'm acquiring a new one and I would like to export all the configuration programs and maybe folder structure to the new one. However I can't access it physically. I would like to know if there is a way of downloading or creating a boot image to install on my new device directly from the running device, via SCP or something like that. If that isn't posible, what are your suggestions to export the configuration to the new computer?
