No.  This is what a "stable" branch means -- you can upgrade from 5.x to 5.x
or from 6.x to 6.x without rebuilding everything, but when you upgrade from
FreeBSD 5.x to FreeBSD 6.x you have to rebuild.

You can do that, or you could instead use the binary upgrade script
which I posted to freebsd-stable about earlier today:
