Yes, you're right. do-release-upgrade looks like the similar command.

Do you know if do-release-upgrade will move from one LTS version to
another? I usually select Ubuntu LTS when I want long term stability,
like over 3 or 5 years. In fact, my main desktop machine is Ubuntu
18.04 LTS.

Fedora does not really offer long term stability. Fedora is more
suited for the latest stable release every 6 months. Select it when
you want as close to the bleeding edge as possible while staying
stable.
