Most often, yes. However, I have had the situation where the hotel did not release the DSU back to the account.
A call to customer service fixes it quickly.

Thanks for the responses.
Mine still hasn't been deducted. Still remains at 4. I upgraded 2 stays and have. Confirmation email for one but not the other (although when I go and modify reservation, I can see that it's already been processed as a suite)

The DSU suite class for most commonly booked properties can be found in the Wiki in this thread: Official Confirmed Diamond Suite Upgrade Experiences - Master Thread.
If that class of suite shows as available for revenue booking, you should be able to DSU into it on a paid rate (and there's no reason to book anything beyond the cheapest available room if you're going to upgrade). It's unclear whether DSU upgrade inventory is limited for C+P bookings - there are reports both ways.

2 stay credits possible from a 3 nights?
I have 3 nights (consecutive) coming up at a Hyatt. If I break the 3 nights into 1 paid, 1 points, 1 paid, would I get 2 stay credits? No other Hyatts are in the the area, or I would just change hotels in the middle.

It's a small possibility that you'd get 2 stay credits, but I wouldn't chance it. Often times consecutive nights, no matter the payment method, will be combined into a single stay.

Hi all,
My sister would like to transfer about 9500 Hyatt points to my account (I have less than 1000 points). I mailed in the form the week between Christmas and New Years and do not see any change to either account. I had heard this was supposedly a fast process. Should I send it in again, maybe via fax or something? thanks for any ideas.
