Correct, no way to move modules between two tools; the game expects you to re-build when you trade up.

do you get the ability to reinstall them? or do you have to actively go search for these techs?

If you've learned the blueprint (like Advanced Mining Laser) then you can immediately reinstall in the new tool for the same resource cost as before, but if you purchased an upgrade module from a vendor for nanites those are just a sunk cost you'll need to reinvest in for the new one.
