Since you have a vaild VCP certification, you can go directly to the VCP6-DCV exam, see path #2: VCP6-DCV Certification

‌Yes you can, as per the reply above this one.

For reference, VCA is never a pre-requisite for a VCP.

Start here: VCP6-NV Certification

You'll need to pass 2 exams - vSphere Foundations and the specific exam for VCP6-NV - you can discover more about the objectives/topics via the link above.

While your Cisco certification means you would be able to bypass the usual training requirement for a VCP certification, you will have much to learn if you're new to VMware - both in terms of vSphere, and NSX itself.

There is a free practice exam for the vSphere 6 Foundations test at www.trainertests.com

Good luck on your exams
