That is OK so long as you upgrade/move to the same (or very similar) OS distro. But beware if you move from somthing like Mint to Debian. Debian ships with a non-standard firefox (a long term support version and not the mozilla-binary version) which means that you cannot just port over your existing home directory structure including the mozilla sub-directories and configuration files.
