Yes you can upgrade directly, but as a seasoned Kerio admin, I would recommend that you have the following lined up prior to the upgrade: a copy of the 9.2.7 installer, at least one, preferably 2 good backups of your Kerio data, and time and patience.
The last upgrade I did, which was a 3rd decimal increment (e.g 9.2.10 to 9.2.11), the server took much longer than I expected to come back online after the installation completed compared to previous upgrades or a normal server restart. I was concerned that something had gone wrong with the install and was ready to reboot the server and re-install the upgrade when it came back up.
The backups and 9.2.7 installer are there if the upgrade does something bad to the mailstore or such that you can revert back fairly easily and then try the upgrade again at a later time/date.
Having said all that, I've found that the Connect upgrades are some of the easiest/smoothest that I have to deal with.
Cheers,
Jon
