The firmware update will leave your data intact. NetGear thoroughly tests firmware updates and they go through an extensive QA process before release. However due to the change in partition format updating from pre-4.2.16 firmware it is recommended to ensure your backup is up to date. If you primarily store important data on the ReadyNAS you should backup that data regularly. See Preventing Catastrophic Data Loss
Updating direct to 4.2.19 from 4.2.15 doesn't work. You'll need to update to 4.2.16 first. If you go to System > Update > Remote you'll find the 4.2.16 update is suggested for your system. After updating to 4.2.16 you can then update direct to 4.2.19.
4.2.20 beta obviously also supports Lion AFP clients, but I'd recommend updating to 4.2.19 and seeing how that goes for you.
