You can repot it now. There's no need to wait until the flowers are done. The flowers may or may not blast, but it'll re-bloom again on the next blooming cycle. If the roots are not disturbed much, chances are, the blooms will likely stay intact.

It's fine. I've known people to do it before. I've done it before when I used to keep tropical freshwater fish.
