Welcome to the forums.
Yes, you can export models you bring in from Maya. There are some things you may want to read regarding normals from Maya to Max here. Unfortunately, we had a server crash a month or two back and most of that thread is lost to the abyss... but I retrieved and reposted some of it.
There is a beta version of the upcoming Wunderboy SMD Exporter available upon request if you are having problems with your normals. (If you would like to test it, I have it for Max 2012 in 64bit and I think maybe 2010/2011 32bit)
You may want to direct any specific questions to our resident Maya expert MR. Kevinlongtime.
