Can I upgrade directly to MacOS Monterey if I am using MacOS BigSur 11.0.1 ?

I am Using MacBook Air 2017 I have macOS MacOS BigSur 11.0.1 installed in my system and I have not updated my macOS to BigSur 11.6



And as Apple released new macOS Monterey tomorrow so can I directly download macOS Monterey instead of downloading macOS bigsur 11.6 that takes 6.17 GB



And will skipping macOS bigsur 11.6 will hamper my system??

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.0

Yes, you may go directly to a Monterey update; however, you will probably still have a view updates following the Monterey install, and you may find some drivers and software that no longer works as before.
