Regarding your subject: no, not a supported one. There will be a
supported path from 6.06 (Dapper) and from 7.10 (Gutsy).

You can do Edgy -> Feisty -> Gutsy -> Hardy, but you are much better off
reinstalling. Omitting releases is also not recommended, again it is
faster to just reinstall.

By the way, Edgy was end-of-life'd on March 25:
