Yes, but 12.1 is not released yet. If you have problems, it is your
problem. Not recommended unless you know how to solve them.

Ok, but if I wanna upgrade to 12.1, I need to reinstall from zero?

no, once 12.1 is released you ‘upgrade’ which is not an “install from
zero” (but, you can do that if you wish…that is what i always do: a
clean format and install and then join the backed-up personal data into
the fresh system–but that is not a published and supported method)…

there are two supported methods to upgrade:

i would suggest you use one of the two above…as they are known to work…
