I can say OPs is like a bread and butter for DevOps. A good DevOps engineer should know Core system administration fundamentals which is a prerequisite. Hence to answer your question. There is no other ideal guy than Ops/system admin who is best suited to be a DevOps engineer.

Yes, ofcourse it is possible, when there is a will there's a way. DevOps needs cloud computing concepts, Linux concepts(few commands), good to have Python scripting, GIT, Docker, Ansible and few more. For sys admin people it is not that difficult to move DevOps.
