It is not looking promising, http://www.officeformac.com/ms/ProductForums/Outlook/1032. Seem good old M$ has done it again.
In the past I have exported or dropped and dragged messages from Entourage, then deleted the message from my mail. You can also drag them back in if you need.
Out the box Microsoft Outlook for Mac 2011 has no equivalent tool to the auto archive functionality found in Outlook for Windows. UPDATE: I have now released a new tool for archiving in Outlook Mac 2011 which is a native Mac Application.

I would set up a folder in my email, move all the messages I want to archive into this folder, then create a folder on my hard drive and drag the email folder into it. This will copy all the emails into the hard drive folder and then delete the folder from Outlook. I would image you can use the export feature to accomplish a similar thing.
