Since the installer is a self contained disk image, it can be booted from
grub:

"Safer" on the other hand is relative.  If something goes wrong during the
you may be SOL.  If you have a second identical system locally you could
test the upgrade on that and should be able to catch any issues.  Or
upgrade a system locally and have your remote people swap them out.
