No you cannot transfer between the two.
You can use UA miles for partner awards on Aloha, either interisland RT for 5K miles or 35K/60K miles RT for Hawaii-west coast Y/F flights.
I don't *think* you can earn Aloha Pass miles on United flights, although you can earn United miles on Aloha flights (but, fyi, save your boarding pass stubs because odds are you will need them to pester UA about getting credit since Aloha's FF accounting is so bad)

And I thought the converter was comprehensive.
It took a few minutes before I thought to check to see if Aloha was included, and it wasn't. You beat me to it.
