Can't say I've tested it. But I was going by the following note 159657.1. Maybe 10g has made things better?
"Upgrade path for Oracle 8i [to 9i]:
If your old release version is 8.1.5 or 8.1.6, then direct upgrade to
Oracle 9.2 is NOT supported. You must first upgrade this version to
8.1.7. After the
upgrade to 8.1.7 or your version IS 8.1.7, you can directly upgrade
your
database to Oracle 9.2. However, if your target release is 9.0.1,
direct upgrade from 8.1.5 and 8.1.6 is supported. "
