I don't think there will be an issue. But still you have to verify.

What AIX version are you in now? And what maintenance level?
The reason is, I've encountered a patching scenario before where the
database version is 10.2.0.2 and there's an IO Interoperability issue
between IBM ML05 and higher and Oracle DB. Those issues are what you
should watch out for.
