Yes you can do it...
Yes I've done it...
Yes your steps are correct...
Make sure you make the corrections to dsmserv.opt file to reference the
correct directories and make sure that the rc.adsmserv references the
correct directories. You may after you get everything copied over do a grep
to make sure there aren't any references to the old directory tree.
If I can answer any other questions let me know
Good luck

Subject: Re: Upgrading to 4.1
I think I was unclear in my original post.
We have already done step 3. The TSM 4.1 software is already
installed on a server in which the 3.1.2.50 software is *also*
running. We would like to upgrade the 3.1.2.50 instance to 4.1,
and I'm wondering if/how I should do this without re-installing
the 4.1 server code.
