Yes, esp. if you are using Debian at infra and in production. I upgraded three servers in the morning while sipping my tea. Nobody noticed anything.
For RedHat family, this is nigh impossible, requiring hours of planning, downtimes, etc., and even then, it's not guaranteed to work.
If you prefer a rolling release, and won't use it on a server, Debian Testing got you covered (unless you are in a security sensitive environment). My systems are well-isolated from outside, so desktop systems can run Testing without issues.
Servers and exposed systems always run stable with security updates installed automatically, though.
