Only if you choose later to go back to the Framework.  If you install
without it, and then you decide you want it, you will have to re-install.
You would do a backup first to preserve what you had and then re-install as
an upgrade using the Framework.  There is no way to "connect" the Framework
to an already-installed NetView that I know of.

What happens if I installed NV/6000 5.x and 6.x under the Framework and I
choose
not to install v7.1 under the Framework? Am I asking for problems?

Yes, migrations from 5.1 direct to 7.1 are supported.  You do it the same
old way.  You make a backup of your existing data and then you do an
upgrade install.

James, thanks for the info. Question - can we do an upgrade from 5.1.x to
7.1?
