In general yes. You can use the following stylesheet to convert your 
DocBook4 documents into DocBook5:

https://docbook.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/docbook/trunk/docbook/relaxng/tools/db4-upgrade.xsl

Maybe you have to check it to avoid some rare transformation problems. 
Therefore always validate your result documents before you apply further 
processing steps. :-)
