I am not familiar with ubuntu. Kloxo based on redhat distro.
Mostly different between ubuntu and redhat are apt versus yum and .deb versus .rpm.
It's not easy.

Hi,
Emm it is not IMPOSSIBLE, but it's absolutely difficult. Firstly, you'll need to check for the install code of the yum packages required, and found the respective apt and .deb codes. You must try to install them. Then, you have the manually change the location of like PHP, Apache, Qmail etc. And you'll have to manually do MySQL install, as the install code provided by us possibly will just not work.
Then, you have to check almost every piece of code to have it capable for Ubuntu.
Basically, it is EXTREMELY difficult and will takes AT LEAST 3-4 months to finish as you'll need lots of check and error, and also you'll have to check for some security problems to have it fully functional.

1) The Location of scripts (for example, PHP, Qmail, MySQL, apache, Bind etc.) is not same as CentOS (different in system structure). So you may need to change them. And you also need to change some scripts so Kloxo will be creating the relative files at the right place.
2) Capability of scripts: some scripts might not support Ubuntu (although I'm not really sure about them).
3) Commands: Kloxo also uses some CentOS /Redhat commands like yum, service etc. It's important for you to change it to fit Ubuntu.
4) RPM repo: Kloxo has it own rpm repo. Usually, we review those repos and make changes to it. So you need to review the changes and apply them to the Ubuntu version of such program.
AND even, even more BEHIND. You'll faces lots of problem between the capability of CentOS and Ubuntu OS's problems. And you won't know until you actually try them
Thanks.
