Updating PHP in Plesk 10 from 5.1.x to 5.3.x

I am hope I am at the right place, I just purchased a VPS plan through a provider and the version of PHP within my initial Plesk 10 shell came preinstalled with php 5.1.6. not the current 5.3 version. I am told by them that Plesk 10 will not run PHP 5.3 within CentOS 5. Is this true?

Here is a couple quotes from our conversation:

Them:
"I'm sorry the plesk installer requires these packages. I removed the php packages and installed php53 from the CentOS respository, this caused an issue with Plesk's PHP -- it requires that you have the 5.1 version:

psa-php5-configurator Failed dependencies:

php-cli is needed by psa-php5-configurator-1.6.1-cos5.build1012110525.15.x86_64"

Me:
"Plesk 10 can run PHP5.3. See these links for reference:

http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?t=108371
http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?t=109479

Please let me know once you have the latest version of PHP up to date on my VPS."

Them:
"Yes, however the Plesk 10 php binaries that are packaged for CentOS 5 are built against the php version 5.1.x that is available in CentOS5."

End quotes**

I upgraded to a VPS from a VDS in order to get the latest version of PHP as the Sphera system that I was on previously would not run PHP 5.2.4. and I need at least that version to install Wordpress 5.2.1.

It is possible to install PHP 5.3.* in Sphera 10 through the container interface and have it play well?
The instruction referenced in the links I referenced above regarding this are a little above my comfort level. Surely this must be possible through the container interface.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
