Normal ubuntu desktop will update ubuntu-desktop package and it's dependencies on release upgrade. Will Ubuntu minimal cd install ubuntu-desktop on release upgrade or just installed packages?

The minimal CD is not intended for release upgrading, it's intended for installing the base system + whatever packages you need, including ubuntu-desktop. If the installation is upgraded, it affects the installed packages, regardless of whether the installation is a server or a desktop.
