Do you mean upgrading from RHEL 6.3 to 6.5 (or better, to latest)?
I'm going to guess that OL is Oracle Linux... correct?
Of course Oracle Linux is different from Red Hat, though they try to maintain compatibility. I wouldn't think it's a problem to upgrade. Generally speaking (especially if there is no support) you should try to upgrade to the latest on version 6 (does look like 6.5 is the latest for Oracle Linux).
If you have doubts about what it might do, again, relatively safe, you might want to check with Oracle support. Generallly speaking (Red Hat, CentOS) updates on the major branch are pretty safe and you can control upgrades to the kernel and bouncing of services... this is "normal" and does not require a "building up from scratch" in fact keeping your 6.x RHEL/CentOS (and presumably Oracle Linux) based system up to date is the best way to get all the security fixes for the system.
I'll keep quiet on this and see if an Oracle Linux user can confirm...

Apache::Session::Oracle(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Apache::Session::Oracle(3pm)
NAME
Apache::Session::Oracle - An implementation of Apache::Session
SYNOPSIS
use Apache::Session::Oracle;
#if you want Apache::Session to open new DB handles:
tie %hash, 'Apache::Session::Oracle', $id, {
DataSource => 'dbi:Oracle:sessions',
UserName => $db_user,
Password => $db_pass,
Commit => 1
};
#or, if your handles are already opened:
tie %hash, 'Apache::Session::Oracle', $id, {
Handle => $dbh,
Commit => 1
};
DESCRIPTION
This module is an implementation of Apache::Session. It uses the Oracle backing store and no locking. See the example, and the
documentation for Apache::Session::Store::Oracle for more details.
USAGE
The special Apache::Session argument for this module is Commit. You MUST provide the Commit argument, which instructs this module to
either commit the transaction when it is finished, or to simply do nothing. This feature is provided so that this module will not have
adverse interactions with your local transaction policy, nor your local database handle caching policy. The argument is mandatory in order
to make you think about this problem.
This module also respects the LongReadLen argument, which specifies the maximum size of the session object. If not specified, the default
maximum is 8 KB.
