To answer your question, yes, you can update your phone on your dad's computer, then re-sync it with yours. It's not like an iPod. It will back up your iPhone to your dad's computer, update it, then let you restore from the backup. When your computer gets fixed, you should be able to sync your music back to it if you need to. There shouldn't be any problems.

I'd make sure the iTunes on your dad's system is not set up to automatically sync whenever it detects a connected iPod or iPhone. If it is, then your music will get erased.
