It depends on how the models were constructed in the poly modeling program.

If they are sub-d smoothed models, then those can be converted into MoI by exporting the sub-d control cage to .obj format and then using the Sub-D converter in MoI under SubD > Create > "From file" which will generate a smooth surface in MoI out of the Sub-d control cage.

If the models were not done using sub-d smoothing in the poly modeling program then that type of data is generally not suitable for conversion into CAD surfaces and solids automatically.
