You wouldn’t have to. What you need to transport from point A to point B are the private keys, those are the only things which don’t ever leave your machine unless you force them to. The provisioning profiles can just be downloaded, as long as the keys are there on the other box, there’s even a button in XCode to download them, as long as you have the private key, they work.
For the longest time I refused to let XCode generate my keys and kept one private/public key pair which I transported to each box. I finally gave that up and copy them over manually. It’s all that’s needed.

Alas, I still got the “you have a developer profile in the Member Center but it is not installed locally” message.

No I don’t think those keys are included in iCloud keychain.
