Sure, that's what solid, reliable system upgrade procedures are meant for. I had virtually no issues with neither Trac nor Trac plugin upgrades so far. I recommend to read the relevant wiki documentation pages [1][2][3], and most important, prepare a working backup of your production system. You should put a copy of that backup onto another system (ensuring the backup is good indeed) and experiment with the upgrade, carefully taking notes and possibly automating fix-ups as required. Then replay, and afterwards you should be prepared to push your production system to current level. More then issues with Trac core I'd rather expect quite a bit of hassle with bringing all Trac plugin code up to the same level. Of course that depends on the number of plugins you're using at your site. I.e. i18n support is still lacking for a lot of them. We're working for years now, and the struggle continues [4]. Help with i18n preparation and translations [5] is always welcomed.
