I don't need the default webapps.
In theory, yes, but backup your system beforehand just in case. You should also replace the scripts in /bin as well. You should also use the migration guide [1] to see what has changed in the config files between those versions and apply any necessary updates to your configuration. You may want to consider taking the time to set up separate CATALINA_HOME (binaries) and CATALINA_BASE (instance) so future upgrades are as simple as unpack the new binary, stop the instance, point the instance to the new binary, start the instance.
