No, the software version you mentioned has latest boot loader, which is not been unlocked yet, and without bootloader unlock, cm11 is not possible to flash,

I want to get the 4.4 update on my new Moto G. But also i want to avoid unlocking the bootloader. I read somewhere that the system will let you flash a signed image without unlocking the bootloader, but i want to be sure, so i don't end with a soft bricked phone and have to unlock it anyways.
Can you help me?
EDIT: You can! Just flash the upgrade via fastboot and your phone will have the last iteration of Android witthot unlocking anything.

you don't have to unlock it if you are updating it through the update option inside the phone itself.

I know, but the phone comes with a carrier firmware that will take some time to roll the update, and I want to replace it.

then the answer is no, in order to load any custom rom you have to unlock your bootloader.

But I'm not trying to load a custom ROM, I'm trying to load an official firmware.
Which is a ROM itself

I think you should refer to this video - http://youtu.be/-L44JqysUy8
It shows how to flash a rom without unlocking the bootloader. There are retail ROMS available from http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=14

I flashed retail.GB over my tesco firmware without unlocking bootloader
Motorola Moto G (XT1032), Android 4.4.2
Before a while a had tried to unlock the bootloader of c2104. After unlocking it went on into boot loops
In the same condition I rooted it and flashed Pactaoshan rom (cm11). In recovery it read package invalid or corrupted. However now it's fine with its stock rom.
Now I try to update it to Cm12. Do I need to unlock bootloader for it or would it work fine without it.
And if I need to unlock, can anyone explain it step by step from unlocking till flashing Cm12?
A video with step wise Guideline would work
Also I am keen to know why my c2104 didn't accept cm11 previously mentioned.
Waiting keenly for your reply.

Lol you're supposed to flash a stock FTF file once you've unlocked your bootloader. Then go through the steps of installing CM11/CM12. That is flashing boot.img from CM11, and then using the recovery menu.(Press and hold the volume up button when the led lights up during power on) Yes I know I said boot.img from CM11, that's because the recovery in CM12 cannot be used properly. In the recovery menu you can either flash the CM11 or CM12 zip file.
And what about unlocking bootloader?
Most of the thread says no need of unlocked bootloader
What is preferable?

I have update my bootloader to 41.19, actually I can flash any rom I Iike , the only question is when I flash 4.4,there are some waves,but it will disappear after first turning off the screen, so I think you dont have to go back to 41.18.

How can I unlock the bootloader on my rooted 5.1.1 d6603 eXistenZ rom without having to loose all my data? And if that's not possible, then how can I unlock the bootloader period? Does it matter if you're rooted and can you do it while on 5.1.1?

You always lose data when you unlock the bootloader.
It does not matter what ROM you are on or if you are rooted.
Any ROm that works on locked bootloader also works on unlocked bootloader
To unlock the bootloader go here http://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/unlock-yourboot-loader/
Will I loose root and my dual recovery and if so is there root for 5.1.1? Thanks for the help.

No, (well you shouldn't) as root and recovery are installed to the system. Unlocking the boot does wipe data though.
And if once you have an unlocked bootloader you can always root any firmware on any android version. That's the main reason to unlock the bootloader. You will also be able to delete recovery from your system and have a custom kernel with recovery built into it.
