Probably a good idea. I just did the same, went from 2.4.3 to 3.0.3, then  
to 5.0.2. Used ./configure + options, make, src/cats/update_mysql_tables,  
make install, then went on to next version and did the same (ran with  
3.0.3 for a few days to check).

The first make will compile stuff so you need a compiler, but it will also  
fill in the .in templates with your setup stuff. For your situation it's  
probably best if you don't run make install, just configure, make and the  
table update script from 3.0.3, then do the same with 5.0.2, then use  
aptitude to install the official package.

The various generic update scripts check what db you have, I just ran the  
mysql one directly. You may need to run the scripts as root or add your db  
pass somewhere (maybe as a command line argument), not sure about that.
