If you mean buy the full retail version and then do an upgrade of RC1-
No. RC1 was the Ultimate Version.

You can use "Windows Easy Transfer" to save your settings in RC1
and then transfer them back to your retail version of Home Premium.

If you're only worried about saving your documents then just do a clean
install over the RC1 (DONT format!). It will back up all of your documents to
C:\windows.old so you can access them afterwards.

As for system settings as well Windows Easy Transfer is as good as it gets.
