Only LTS to LTS and sequential releases have that ability.
Easiest method is to back up and fresh install.

Sorry.

Edit, if you are only going to update every 2 yrs. get on the LTS cycle.
For now upgrade to 12.04 then wait for 14.04, then you can wait every 2 yrs. and you are good.

I don't even upgrade on sequential releases, I always perform a fresh install, it's cleaner. Unless you're stuck for some reason (like if you've got too much stuff to back it all up, or a broken computer with no dvd drive or working usb) that's the best option, especially in this case when you're several releases back.
