You can reuse the same datastructure that you have been using with TV, 
since the flexform field has actually been created to be able to compare 
migrated grid elements with former TV elements after a semi-autimatic 
migration. BUT - and this is a BIG but - you should not do that, since 
it would just contradict the purpose of gridelements completely, which 
was to get rid of the XML stuff for real content and use normalized 
relations instead.
So the purpose of the flexform is to provide configurational stuff like 
"enable accordion" or "layout variants", while the content should be 
made of real content elements put into the columns of the container 
provided by your gridelement.

BTW: Looking at your example page I can not find any content that would 
need an FCE, since actuallly these elements are just a variant of "Text 
with Image", which is a default content element of CSS-styled-content.
