Yep... just load the item in DS, select it in the scene tree, the go to "File" > "Export"... you can export obj's and Cr2's and then it's just a matter of selecting the right export options in the export menu... You can even export the obj with textures and an mtl materials file that Poser can read when you import it, you just need to tell Poser to read the mtl file on import. If you choose to, you can even export entire DS scenes as a single obj.
If you have multiple items loaded into DS when you export an obj, it will automatically create a single obj file with all the items you've loaded (though they won't be pose-able individually once you do this). If you only want a single item from a scene you'll need to delete anything you don't want before you export the obj...

Just as easy to export it as a cr2 just make sure to choose Poser scale or it will be too large. I have gotten a couple of things into Poser that I used on Dawn that their were only DS versions for.
If you find Blender doesn't suit...it makes my head melt the way it works, you could try using Geek At Plays tutorials for Hexagon that was how I got started.
I think I need more coffee...have to take my parents shopping this morning so I'll need a kickstart.
I've only ever managed to do one thing in blender and that was by following a tutorial very carefully. It may be very powerful but it just doesn't make sense to me. I can use Hexagon and Zbrush no problems though...

I designed the landscaping for the landlord for the building I live in. Created a nice circular garden around a large tree in one corner of our front yard by the street. Matched that with a second circular garden with decorative shrubs in the opposite corner at the curb and put a large piece of driftwood, for some visual character as a feature for the shrubs to grow around. Against the walls along the front of the building I put in rectangular gardens with a raised circular inset to make everything tie in together. I added decorative Red Cedar mulch, and each garden got a boarder edge of local Blue Shale from our escarpment here. Along with nice shrubs I planted Snap Dragons and Tiger Lilies... I was raised a country boy, and put myself through school taking landscaping work during summer breaks...

Here's a bunch of kitchen stuff that includes a 'Pot Belly Stove', or something like that.
I think it's a composite prop instead of a figure, but it could be converted to rigged if you like.
There's no restrictions on use, and it's free. Looks like this:
All this stuff was modeled without drinking any coffee at all.

I made the Stove Prop into a single OBJ file and zipped it.
Unzip to wherever you would put your geometry to work on.
You can load it into Hex.. and play with the shape of it or use it as is and rig it in Poser.
You will need 9 Bones with internal names set as follows.
First the Oven bone which is the main body.
Then..
lOvenDoor
rOvenDoor
CoalDoor
lFrontBurner
rFrontBurner
lRearBurner
rRearBurner
StovePipe
The child bones don't need to be connected to the Oven bone.
Just deselect the current bone and start a new one each time.
For the doors place the bone's origin in line with the hinges -
(vertically for the Oven Doors, and horizontally for the CoalDoor)
and in between them (the hinges)
Orient the bones so they are within the geometry of each part as close as possible.
You can experiment with the burners so they will open as you like.
I would put the origin level with the stove top and off the side so the burners lift like someone raising them.
I didn't make a burner handle so if you want one you get to make it yourself.
The stove pipe wouldn't move of course but you could scale the bone
vertically so the pipe will go through a roof if there is one.
Oh yes, and disable bend on all the parts or the stove will go goofy.
