Is it possible to burn a bootable OSX Mavericks ISO on a DVD?

Question

My early 2011 Macbook Pro is almost full right now, and I was thinking about formatting and installing the new OSX Mavericks, because it's free.

But.

Since my Macbook came with OSX Lion 10.7.5 already installed, I don't have any disks, and I'm not quite sure whether my OSX Lion version is "tied" with my Apple ID or with my machine.

The question is: How can I be sure that my Apple ID has OSX Lion in it?

If no downloads for OSX Lion are available on my account, can I just download OSX Mavericks and burn it on a DVD and then boot it as new?

I used this and I was able to burn the ISO in Disk Tools and it works... Takes forever to boot, but now I have a DVD that can install Mavericks.... and an ISO too! :)

@Ramhound You can also upgrade straight from 10.7 or 10.6 to 10.9. See apple.com/osx/how-to-upgrade.
