I realize it's out of date but it's configured and I need to get something up. I don't think the guy who initially installed even registered. I'm hoping I can register and be able to use yum to get up to date and running. Thanks for any advise.

Yes, it's possible, but why? If you're going to go the CentOS route anyway, you can install it fresh in less time than it would take you to work through getting the system registered, then changing things later.
Load CentOS now, save yourself some headaches later. If this is a company, production server and you need 24/7 uptime, spend the money on support. If you need it, it's there.
