Yes. I believe it should still be possible to get the upgrade, but you'd have to look for it. I upgraded during the "nag" period and my Kindle service was never interrupted.

Of course, I also have Kindle for PC and download almost all my purchases that way. I rarely use the physical Kindle, but there are occasional files that I have to download to the PC by the "load via USB" option -- occasional issues of F&SF, for example. For that option to be available you'd need to have upgraded the Kindle.
