You don't have to, you can have as many different GnuCash versions installed on a Mac as you like, you just need to either rename them or keep them in different directories because they normally all have the same filename. But since you're not going to use GnuCash 3.4 any more you might as well trash it.
You should certainly quit GnuCash before starting a different version on the same file.
