Of course there is. This is emacs. ;)
Use C-x n s to narrow to the current subtree.
Use C-x n w to go back to the whole buffer (widen).
Use C-c x b to create a new buffer containing only the current subtree.
See http://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.php#indirect-buffers
Note: I can't recall if the vim outliner's "hoisting" includes
temporarily/artificially "raising" the headline level/indentation of the
narrowed subtree. Org-mode does not do this (and intentionally so).
Best,
Matt
