Yes, you install the ovirt-node-iso rpm (available in 3.1 repositories)
on the engine host.  The will put the iso in /usr/share/ovirt-node-iso.
It should then show up as an upgrade option in engine.

I thought this was tested, but I'm not sure.  I mostly concentrate on
the iso initiated upgrades.  If it doesn't show up correctly, it will
most likely work if you sym link the /usr/share/rhev-hypervisor
directory to /usr/share/ovirt-node-iso
