Yes, that will work fine in most cases, key being that you can't have any
users connected.

If it doesn't work, the next level would be:

- startup migrate
- run catupgrd.sql   (yes, even if you haven't upgraded)

This will go over *everything* you can installed, even components not
explicitly touched by catproc or catalog

Done many times pre-11.2 releases
