Well yes, unless you don't mind "Wrong password" and a defaced website in some course of time.

Yes, You Should Upgrade to newer Version Because :
Wordpress 2.6 Has Many New Features and Improvements, Such As :
* Word count! Never guess how many words are in your post anymore.
* Image captions, so you can add sweet captions like Political Ticker does under your images.
* Bulk management of plugins.
* A completely revamped image control to allow for easier inserting, floating, and resizing. It’s now fully integrated with the WYSIWYG.
* Drag-and-drop reordering of Galleries.
* Plugin update notification bubble.
* Customizable default avatars.
* You can now upload media when in full-screen mode.
* Remote publishing via XML-RPC and APP is now secure (off) by default, but you can turn it on easily through the options screen.
* Full SSL support in the core, and the ability to force SSL for security.
* You can now have many thousands of pages or categories with no interface issues.
* Ability to move your wp-config file and wp-content directories to a custom location, for “clean” SVN checkouts.
* Select a range of checkboxes with “shift-click.”
* You can toggle between the Flash uploader and the classic one.
* A number of proactive security enhancements, including cookies and database interactions.
* Stronger better faster versions of TinyMCE, jQuery, and jQuery UI.
* Version 2.6 fixes approximately 194 bugs.
There is a brief video tour of 2.6, if you have 3 minutes and 29 seconds to spare, it’s worth a watch: CLICK HERE
