You can successfully climb mill on an old mill with backlash so long as the cutter depth is small and the milling machine is big, for there to be a problem the cutter has to overcome the mass and friction of the table.
Before I reduced the backlash on my mill I would regularly climb mill on light finishing cuts without problems.
