Yes you should be able to upgrade from WBEL3 to WBEL4 but you probably
won't be able to do it via up2date or yum on a live system.  I'd guess
the only safe method will be via anaconda, which has been par for the
course with RH derived systems for years.  Would be nice to see a day
when you can do it remote on a running system like the Debian folks do,
but this one is not going to be it.  Especially considering how much new
and different stuff is going to be in 4, Selinux alone would make it a
very tough prospect to do a live migration.
