It's risky... If this is mission critical stuff, I would be installing a SharePoint farm on a VM, patching up to the infrastructure updates, doing the restore there, and then upgrading to SP2. That way you can take another backup of the content at the SP2 level to restore into your production farm without issues.

If I restore it on SharePoint Server which is patched SP2, will I need to run the SharePoint config wizard again new web application which has been restored. I assume we can restore pre SP2 backup on SP2 box but not vice versa.
