No, you don't have to uninstall Apache 1.3 that came with Redhat. Just leave it where it is, make sure it doesn't run at boot by default. Then put Apache 2 in some location like /usr/local/apache2. You won't hurt anything leaving your existing Apache as is, you just want to make sure it doesn't conflict with the Apache you are trying to install.
I don't use RPMs, I build from source for non-Java, use binaries for Java. That's me. If you want to build from source, that's cool, just make sure you know what you are doing before you start and that you have the build tools ready to go (like GNU make, autoconf, m4, etc). You might want to consider using RedHat tools like up2date (or whatever they call it) to upgrade your Apache 1.3 RPM to Apache 1.3.26 instead of trying to put another RPM on top of it. Like I said, I don't use RPMs, so I'm not the best person to help with those sorts of issues, and either way, basic sys-admin questions don't belong on this list. There's no requirement that you must use 2.0.40...I'm using 1.3.26 in production and it works with Tomcat just fine.
