Under confucianism it was possible for a person born into a lower class to rise to a higher class. true or false?

Although in essence Confucianism established that a person´s place in society should be kept, thus, a person should be happy to stay, and perform the expected roles of his/her place within society, and not seek to move from it, during the Han dynasty, which was the first Chinese ruling family to apply Confucianism state-wide in China, merit became the norm for people to gain social mobility and notoriety, rather than birth.
