No.  Reinstall completely.  Do not try to "migrate" without a complete
wipe/reload.

Let's phrase this differently...  Pretend you could take a sparc64 disk
and put it in an amd64 system and it was still readable.  Would you
think it reasonable to "upgrade"?  Of course not, they are totally
different platforms.  In the case of OpenBSD, amd64 and i386 are
/totally different platforms/.  Under the cover, they are more similar
than sparc64 and amd64, perhaps, but they are still /different platforms/.
