There is NO supported or automated way to migrate only NSX-V DFW rules into NSX-T 4.x without migrating hosts/workloads.
What you can do? Manual rule translation.
Export NSX-V DFW rules (XML / CSV)

Subject: Only DFW rules \Migration from NSX-V 6.4.10 to NSX T 4.2.2
Hi Team,
Need your help or suggestion here.
Currently we have NSX-V 6.4.10 and now we have setup NSX-T 4.2.2 (which we deployed through VCF 5.2)
Challenge is that , we only need to extract or migrate NSX V DFW rules to NSX T .
We don't want to migrate any host/ESG's VM's from NSX-V , we only need DFW Rules
Note:-NSX-T DFW import option support Zip file with Meta data file.
Please help me here with your suggestion
