If it is already on vmware, you can use vmware capabilities for cloning, that's ok.
For that license related part;

Vmware is supported, but it has disadvantages for Oracle licensing.
Your databases will be licensed according to your Vmware "host" cpu counts.
No matter how many virtual cpu cores your vm machines have, you need to license your databases and applications according to your vmware host  cpu.. So keep that in mind..
In other words; cpu pinning and hard partitioning on vmware is not accepted for Oracle licensing..
