Cisco ASA 5505 ios upgrade

I would like to update the ios on one of my ASA 5505 firewall appliances. I do not have an active smartnet on it so I can't download from Cisco's website. I do have other 5505s with a later ios. Can I copy the ios bin file from one asa and copy it  to another?

Legally, no.

Technically, yes, if you have enough memory.

Thanks for all the useful tips. I went with updating the IOS and then doing a write erase on the config and then copied and pasted to a new one. I was able to work through the commands that changed from one version to another.
