    In theory you can via AlmaLinux Elevate like you can with CentOS to AlmaLinux 8 and then to AlmaLinux 9. I've done limited some private testing which worked as far as upgrading in place. Have not done long term testing of it being trouble free as yet.

    It's recommended you do a fresh AlmaLinux 8 or 9 install and migrate Centmin Mod over for 100% working system.

    From Centos to Alma Linux 8 i did a fresh install but i was just wondering as i thought that will be a lot easier to upgrade now to Alma Linux 9 without a reinstallation....

    Thank you
