Bad things man, bag things...

DSL is not 100% pure Debian system. If you try and do a dist upgrade, it will break the xserver or even worse.

But if you are curious, you can always give it a try and then reinstall DSL after you finish breaking your current installation

I have done it out of curiosity before. I just did it from a live-cd so that I didnt break anything that I cant fix without a reboot.
