In most common cases, this is not a problem because Dolibarr guarantees that you can upgrade to a recent version at any time from any old version (even on a version N-20 released 10 years ago), in few seconds and without loosing data, so you can always benefit of the latest fixes. But if you made some '''custom modifications''' in the core or use '''external modules''' not yet compatible with recent versions, upgrades may overwrite your custom changes or may make old external modules not working anymore. For such cases, if the community fixers are not enough active for your own Dolibarr version, you can get contractual support for LTS from some open source companies; Some integrators provide such a support (See https://partners.dolibarr.org). Also some Saas hosting companies also provide Long Term Support on any version of deployed instances (See https://saas.dolibarr.org).
