Yes, I've done it a few months ago.. Just read through the files.. As far
as I remember you need to build amd64 world, then kernel, installworld,
installkernel, reboot, voila, it works.. I had some small problems which I
don't remember now, you will able to solve them for sure. Maybe don't
forget to backup your data first ;-)
Actually, no data yet ... having a new CD burned as I type this, and will
do a clean install ...

Yes, in fact it's pretty simple, quoting /usr/src/Makefile:
# If TARGET_ARCH=arch (e.g. ia64, sparc64, ...) is specified you can

# and once the world is built you can cross build a kernel using the
# buildkernel target.
Just read through /usr/src/Makefile and /usr/src/UPDATING.

Just had a new 64bit server installed at the colo, but they accidentally
installed a i386 ISO, instead of an AMD64 one ... is it possible to build
/ install an amd64 world, or do I have to re-install from a proper ISO
first ?
Thanks ...
