EX4500 to EX4600, switch code the same?

We have a stack of two EX4500s that form the core of our network in a hub and spoke configuration. Our 24 edge data closets all have stacks of EX4200s that terminate at the core via single mode fiber and SFPs. We have 8 servers and two storage arrays in our data center that are connected to the core using 10G DAC cabling. Eighteen of the 20 vlans that are configured have routable interfaces so we are using the EX4500s for layer 3.

 

We will soon be replacing this setup with a stack of EX4600s. In order to get the proper 10G port count, we will be using some Juniper DACBO cables which break out a 40G port on this switch into 4x10G ports. My question is how easy will this transition be with our Junos switch code? We are currently running Junos 15.1R6-S2 on the EX4500s. Can our current code be dropped onto the EX4600s, cleaned up a bit, and just run?
