You can install newer version without uninstalling old version.

Typically the new XnView version contains all files that have been in the old installation or sometimes more. So it's enough to unzip the XnView ZIP archive over the other. If you want to be on the (very) safe side, you use a different target folder and delete the old fodler.
If you have used the XnView Setup to install XnView, I'd recommend to uninstall XnView using Windows Control Panel > Software > XnView and then install XnView usinig ZIP archiv or new XnView Setup.
