Yes. it's possible.
Don't forget to sync the domain before taking the BDC offline. This is the first step.

There is no need to promote a Bdc to Pdc prior to upgrade.As you have stated you have a bdc.Before taking bdc offline force syncronize,Take you bdc offline and start you upgrade thereafter,since your bdc has updated sam(read only)If you upgrade collpses
for some reason or you want to revert,promote you offline bdc,you network is unaffected.Hope that helped
