Mike, you cannot. And I don't think Verizon will not be "releasing" that phone, why would they?
It IS physically possible but there are at least a half dozen hurdles to overcome, any ONE of which could kill the deal.
A Virgin Mobile phone is a Sprint (prepaid) phone, it's already hard enough trying to get a regular Sprint phone on Verizon.

They are coming out with them...i believe verizon took it already...it was at CES and even Maxim rated it as a verizon phone...so it should be out very soon...just i dont have any patience and my v810 hook up is lazy...

Mike,
Yes, you can take any handset from Virgin to Verizon. However, you will need to know the SPC, reprogram it (for VZ specific settings), and change the software.
Quite honestly, it's a pain in the rear to convert it. Not to mention walking into the store to activate it with Virgin Mobile branding...
Verizon has the SE47 in their labs now, targeting a later Q3 launch I think.
