Can I take the SIM card out of my Verizon Moto X and use it in a Nexus 6?

[AC Question]

I would like to upgrade to a Nexus 6 but there is conflicting info about whether it will work if I don't buy it from Verizon. I have a Moto X and it has a nano sim card - can I take it out of the moto x and install it in the nexus?

The phone I was thinking of buying is from Amazon. com

Thanks in advance.
