Yes, that certainly ought to work.

If what you're meaning is that you make a replica that sits in
/opt/VERSION8, and then, once the upgrade is complete, rename that to
/opt/MYDATABASE which was where your version 7.4 DB used to be.

We have copied databases from one server to another by copying the
files; making it work was as easy as making sure we ran "pg_ctl -D
$RIGHT_DIRECTORY start" :-).
