As long as you don't stop udev, nor try to reboot before merging the
new version, yes.

The more important question is: Why does it block? udev is not slotted.
An update shouldn't block itself. Something's not right here.

That is a good question. I had three blocks:
[blocks B ] <sys-fs/lvm2-2.02.97-r1 ("<sys-fs/lvm2-2.02.97-r1" is blocking sys-fs/udev-197-r4)
[blocks B ] <sys-fs/udev-186 ("<sys-fs/udev-186" is blocking sys-fs/udev-init-scripts-22)
[blocks B ] <sys-kernel/genkernel-3.4.25 ("<sys-kernel/genkernel-3.4.25" is blocking sys-fs/udev-197-r4)
I upgraded genkernel and lvm2 and the udev bloc resolved itself.

I ran into something like this too but no genkernel here. I switched to
eudev so not sure how to get around it since I had to unmerge udev to
install eudev anyway. I would suggest going to the boot runlevel at
least tho. Then unmerge things until it is happy. That was what I had
to do.
Don't forget udev is a service so after the update, either reboot or
restart the service. I would restart the sservice because the device
nodes should already be there but will be gone if you reboot.

It's difficult to give a definitive answer without seeing the emerge
output.
