In theory upgrading should not be a problem but there are no guarantees so backup first. The most likely cause of problems will be lists, see my site for more information.

I recommend creating the backup in a zip file. Then you can unzip it as many times as you need rather than accidentally opening the backup in the later version as well.

So ... back up all 40+ projects, as well as the Main one?

Yes. If you are upgrading you should always back up first, be it one project or one hundred.

Are they not all hanging off of one parent folder?
