You _should_ be okay. I run a number of boxes, some local and headless and others remote. I=20 usually upgrade all of them via ssh in multi-user mode followed by a sing= le=20 reboot. I do the local ones first, and if they all go without a hitch th= en=20 I feel more confident about doing the remote ones. Just remember that there's always a chance something will go wrong and=20 you'll need local access and a console to fix it (unless you have a fancy= =20 serial console setup..).
