I've two accounts as Android Developer at Play Store: Account1 and Account2. I have an App with package com.example.miapp associated to Account1 from long time ago. I need to associate the App to the Account2; that Account2 will be the owner of this app. In other words, migrate my app from an account to another. Is posible? If I need something similar but between two different persons accounts, is it posible? How I can do that?

You'll need the registration transaction ID for your account and the target account. To find the transaction ID, search the target account owner's email inbox for “developer registration fee.” If you can't find the transaction ID email receipt: With the target account owner's email address, sign in to Google Payments.
If you want to transfer your apps to a different Google Play Developer account, please submit a transfer request to Google. Transfer requests are typically processed by Google within 48 hours.
Yes it's possible. I've done it.

The problem is not transferring an app to another account (and it doesn't matter if that's between two of your own accounts or between two different persons's or company's accounts), that's a matter of less than a day, but transferring the signing key. If the signing key is used for no other apps, then there's no problem. If other apps are signed with the same key and if the transfer happens to another person/company then you'll have to share the key, which isn't always desirable.
My recommendation is therefore to sign each app with another key, because that makes such a transfer easier.
