Don't be surprised if you don't like the sound as much...
Personally I much prefer my 12-string with 11s tuned down a tone - I just capo at the second if I want to play standard-tuning. I don't really see the point in tuning higher and not using the capo, since the effectively smaller fret spacing with the capo on makes playing open chords easier, and you're probably never going to play that high up the neck on a 12-string so the neck joint being effectively at the 12th fret - 10th on mine, since it's a 12-fretter anyway! - isn't an issue really.

You can make 12s much less hard on the fingers by going to 'hybrid 11/12s' - change the top two strings from 12 and 16 to 11 and 15.
