Yes you should, although since Windows is running in a VM, any issues won't affect the Mac.
If you have it set up so that all data is stored externally over a network, and you back up the Parallels image while it is in a good state, then if you have problems you simply need to roll back to the stored image instead of re-installing (AFAIK).
Hope that makes sense!
