Yes.  Login to console & run through the 'Configure this server' option.  This runs through all the questions you saw when you first installed the Server including whether to set up in Server-Only or Server-Gateway mode.

You can either remove one of your NICs or just choose which one you want to use - just make sure you connect the network cable to one NIC that you keep active  :D

Changing from Server-Only to Server-Gateway won't affect your ability to upgrade from SME6 to SME7.  Other things, such as some contribs etc., might.

If in doubt check these forums as there's plenty of good advice on upgrading to SME7.
