When 4.5 is released, and you run 'yum update' on 4.4, you'll get 4.5. 4.5 is 4.x + bug/security fixes to that point. The lifespan for centos4 is 7 years. During that time, you'll have 4.0 thru 4.18 or whatever the final minor point revision ends up being. Basically yes, you want this upgrade. -- During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.
