It is working. Just make sure you don't start the CM services till you are at the final version with actual license file.
I have done upgrade from 3.x to 8.0 or 8.5 in VMware environment. A couple of upgrade before I can do DMA. A couple of upgrade before I can hit 8.x since DMA don't go 8.x directly.
Unsupported method but definitely it's working.

I also thought someone here wanted to do something similar and the finding was the database would still be marked as unsuppoted. Maybe I'm remembering incorrectly.
