Can I simply follow the procedure as mentioned here "https://www.virtualmin.com/documentation/system/os/debian-wheezy-to-jess..." or do I have to upgrade to wheezy first and then to jessie?

So to go from Debian 6 to 8, you'd first need to perform these steps here:

And once that's working, you'd then be able to perform the steps in this link:
