IMHO they won't be affected until "shutdown" of the guest and/or the host.

backup the old kvm package (look in /var/cache/apt/archive) before
upgrade.
beaware that some command line switches changed between 0.9.1 and 0.12.4.
and upgrade your host kernel too (2.6.32 is in backports) for a newer
version of the kvm kernel module (don't know if kvm-72 works with 0.12.4)
