It is quiet risky, I would recommend you to create a fullbackup of Plesk and also make a seprate copy of data backup and then think over upgrade to newer version.

Remember, theplanet will never give you support, the love to reload the OS even if you get a single error. they are offering the wrost support they love to charge $150/hour

As far as I know the first year of license you can upgrade free.
