No, running 'yum update' will only update the current version. To go from F8
to F9, I first installed this new release RPM: 

# rpm -Uhv
ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/9/Everything/i386/os/Packages/fedora-release-*.noarch.rpm 

I then ran yum update, which upgrade some 1200 packages. It took awhile but
it worked.
