Yes, you can.
Method 1:
The safest way is to fully unroot (using supersu)
But firstly, you've to resent counter via triangleaway. Install app from appstore and press reset counter.
Once it is reset, uninstall the Triangle away from app drawer.
Use fully unroot option in supersu.

}
After that, It is recommended to do a factory reset and wipe cache partition. However it is not necessary.
NOW You will have unrooted 4.1.2
Use OTA update to upgrade to 4.4.2.
To root 4.4.2 follow the instructions in the link given below:
http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/root-galaxy-note-2-n7100-android-4-4-2-kitkat-install-philz-recovery-144789
Method 2:
Download 4.4.2 firmware for your region on Sammobile website.
Flash the file using ODIN 3.09. Dump ur file in AP tab and start. Make sure only auto reboot and f.reset time are checked. Start it. After d process is completed you will get a pass message.
Done. Now you are on 4.4.2.
To root follow the link mentioned before.
Don't forget to press thumbs up if u found my suggestions helpful.

To recover OTA updates you need to reset your binary counter. (you need root access)
So you should root your device again then reset your counter and finally flash a stock firmware.

No.2 Here is the result from the Root checker app (weird) - i DID the root via SAFEROOT on this forums
No.3 While opening Super SU and trying to update
and then
and when choosing NORMAL
OR when chossin CWM option
And FINALLY AFTER REBOOTING THE PHONE
so, mages, sages and holy emissionaries from XDAfrorums, gather in this noble quest and preach me the truths and values of ROOTING MY NOTE 2
IMPORTANT BACKGROUND
When i was on STOCK 4.1.2 i ROOTED the phone with no problem via FRAMAROOT APPLICATION found on XDA,
After flashing with ODIN the 4.3, this sh*t started to appear..
go to recovery and flash SuperSU flashable package and you should be good to go
or just use this tutorial
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1896696
Does it matter that my phone isn't rooted after reboot?

that is how I rooted my n7100 from stock:
1. flashed recovery via Odin 3.09
2. go to recovery and install SuperSU1.65.zip
3. boot back to stock ROM and run SuperSU - you can update binaries
4. backup EFS and whatever I needed
5. install triangle away apk, run it, reboot
6. flash custom ROM via TWRP recovery

I was able to access the download mode however when I tried to flash philz recovery via Odin, it failed.
The error message is below.
As I am able to see the product name, I guess it is not the SDS issue that has been circulating.
Would appreciate any help from you guys.
Thanks a lot!
What bootloader are you on?
(What does it say whe you're in DL mode)
If you have Knox you cant just flash anything you like, you'll have to flash 4.3 stock rom with knox and follow instructions of how to disable knox and downgrade.
If not on knox bootloader DL a 4.1.2 rom and flash it through odin
(Your OS and Odin versions can sometimes cause the PIT not found issue)
Which odin should i use to flash 4.1.2? And how do I check if my friend's phone has knox?
Anywhere i can get a 4.1.2 stock? Cannot find it on Sammobile for Singapore's version.
Nope did not work. Tried flashing 4.3 stock failed. Tried with PIT, failed too. All attempts failed at unable to Repartition.
Note 2 unable to boot up
Hi, so what u did to get the phone back on service? My aunt's note 2 give the same white screen like the top pic.

[Q] Sprint gs3 4.4 / ND8 root problems

Alright folks, I'm losing my mind here...
I recently flashed the ND8 stock and am attempting to get root using the CF auto root. Odin tells me that everything has has finished properly. When I restart the phone the auto-root appears to complete, then the phone restarts. Root checker says no root.
I have tried different cables, usb ports, computers. I have had odin's auto restart checked and unchecked, flashed philz recovery. USB debug is on. Still no root! What am I doing wrong? I'm not a noob, nor am I a dev, but this is the first time in 6 six different phone models that I have failed to get root by following the directions provided by those smarter than me.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
Sorry, but I've never used cf autoroot.
I would:
Flash the latest Philz.
Go into "philz settings" and click "re_root system (supersu)"
If the above doesn't work, search the Web and download update_supersu_. Zip (actual file name will include version #)
Go back into philz and flash the su file.
If SuperSU crashes after attempting to open, go to Google store and "update" SuperSU.

nice to hear that it worked but if someone is looking and for whatever reason they don't want to use odin i have confirmed that Towel Root app will work on stock 4.4.2
I used cf auto root to root my phone, I had to do it a few times to make it stick.

If you have rooted as above linked I would recommend to flash latest CWM as zip through recovery, but nothing wrong with other ways mentioned.
thanks sir. *Searching for the latest CWM zip
