Currently I have MVC2 web application(on going). If I'm to use Azure PaaS (Platform as a Service), Can I use the existing project. Or should I create new project (using Cloud service project template)? Can it be migrated? And what kind of effort will it take for migration? Or should I rewrite the entire application with new project template?
Can a existing MVC2 application migrated to Azure Cloud Service Project?

Not sure if this would work with MVC 2 web application but you can simply try to convert the web application to Cloud Services project by right clicking on your project in Visual Studio (I used VS 2013), then Convert context menu and then selecting Convert to Microsoft Azure Cloud Service Project.
You don't have to rewrite the project itself, you can simply add another project to your solution (which is a cloud project) and then point it to your other project in the associated definitions.
This is a useful technique when you already have existing projects that you want to migrate to Azure.
