Yes - this should be possible. You have I assume a single RHN Proxy 
subscription, which allows you to be subscribed to any Proxy channel of 
your choice. Once the 4.1 Proxy becomes inactive, you should be able to 
use the 'rhn-proxy-activate' command on your last step to re-activate 
it, without the need to go through the webui activate/install/configure 
screens for a RHN Proxy.
