yes, that's ok.

It doesn't matter too much if you upload an emacs23 src package with the
emacs binary dropped first because emacs has already been taken over by
emacs24. And an upload trying to include that binary would be rejected.
Also emacs in sid already depends on emacs23.

But doing them roughly at the same time makes sense to me.
 
Kind regards
