Once my phone is setup, can I run setup again?

I just purchased my iphone 6. I previously owned an android phone and I am trying to transfer data from my android to my iphone but I have already set up my iphone. I would like to start over setting up my new phone so I can make the transfer.

Yeah to restore and start again go to settings- general- scroll to bottom and go to reset- choose reset all content and settings.

Should be doable through connecting your iPhone to iTunes and then selecting restore.

Also, check out Apple's official guide on how to do this:
