As per the doc, ASA 5520 requires 2 Gb for code 8.3 and higher so you can upgrade directly to either 8.2.4 or 8.2.5 but it is suggested that you do upgrade the memory as well to avoid any issues later.

As long as you make sure the memory remains significantly nominal, you should be fine with the upgrade. The essence is it will still work with current memory but may have issues moving further.
