It's done all the time. However, don't forget that the pay difference from a commissioned warrant officer to a commissioned officer (O-1) may be lower depending on how may years you have in service. There was a program called "save pay" if I remember that will at least guarantee you won't take a pay cut initially. There is also a separate pay scale for commissioned officers that have formally been enlisted or warrant officers. Just be sure you "know before you go."
