If I have a 7 speed cassette right now, can I have a 9 speed cassette on the same frame, or will I need a new frame?

Thanks in advance!

It depends. What is the over-lock-nut-distance and what material the frame is made of?

For years I was riding a 7 speed in an old Steel frame. I had assumed it was too narrow for a "modern" cassette. I tried it the other day - fitted like a glove. I had been compressing the stays a small amount with the old hub. 1980's frame too.......
