It is perfectly right to do so. Read the release notes of 6.0.13 and follow the standard procedure for upgrading.

1. Always good to have a full backup of accounts, and your /opt/zimbra directory.
2. Make note of the services you have been running on the server. (zmcontrol status)
3. Stop your zimbra server with 'zmcontrol stop' (if it is a multiserver setup, stop your mailstore servers first, and then the ldap server. Upgrade ldap server first, and then the mailstores. Upgrade and keep ldap running when working on mailstores)
4. Make sure no zimbra process is running
5. Run the installer script as root user. (I always do this on screen)
6. Follow the instructions.
7. After the upgrade, update your forum profile too

Just download the one thats suits your platform from here Network Edition Downloads: Enterprise Messaging and Collaboration Software by Zimbra. It is the full version there.

Oops, didn't see you are into FOSS. Okay, this is the link Open Source Edition Downloads: Enterprise Messaging and Collaboration Software by Zimbra. Download and install the full version under 6.0.13 suitable for your platform, and later apply the patch if you would like to (which is always good).
