Not only have people tried this before, but there is an entry in the
manual about it:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/ref/models/querysets/#pickling-querysets

wrt to your later question - how can you tell if the object already
exists in the database - you need to understand what django does when
you save a model, and how to customize that behaviour.

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/ref/models/instances/#what-happens-when-you-save
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/ref/models/instances/#how-django-knows-to-update-vs-insert
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/ref/models/instances/#forcing-an-insert-or-update
