The question is in the title. :-)
Do we uninstall the old toolset before installing the new one?

ok, maybe not
but there's a big:

Builder-to-builder files (extension DADBDATA) are not compatible between the first released version of the toolset and subsequent versions.

I did not uninstall before upgrading. But make sure you follow the instructions on the wiki pages. I had to install without overwriting the current db. Then do a b2b export, then do a db restore using the new db, then recreate my module, then import my b2b content into it, making sure to pick the option to create new string ID's for everything.

You should be able to install overtop of your old installation without problem. At least, we haven't encountered any in testing, and haven't thought of any reason why it would cause them.
As FalloutBoy mentions, if you're trying to migrate content from your old database into the new one it's probably safest _not_ to uninstall first since it reduces the chance of accidentally removing your old database prematurely.
