Definitely. I have bug-fix branches where I slip critical fixes into older major versions that can't be used by some users, due to dependency changes, and routinely release them.

The intention was to specify the minimum new version; you can always use a larger version than that if you want. It may well be sloppily worded, though (and if it allows version number to go down then it definitely is :-) ).

In principle it is ok to release a lower version later. E.g. you might maintain bugfix releases of two major versions.
