Yes. Although someone on this forum said the clean install is better (at least it was for them)

I almost never UPGRADE any os, but I decided to try it for 9, worked beautifully, all i had to do to get full operational was uninstall my existing apt and synaptic, install the new ones, and have them auto update everything to their respective 9 compliant versions...the new synaptic looks real nice, and so does the new gaim.
