No, if you are just downloading the tarball from httpd.apache.org, then it is a new installation. Your distribution may provide an easier update path though. Be careful if you just install over the top, any files from the old version that don't exist in the new version would stay on disk. It is often easier to preserve the conf, completely remove the original apache install, and then reinstall. Obviously, this is just if you are doing it from source. It is much preferred to use your distributions package management to upgrade it.
