Yes, you should be able to install the new version over the old one without any info getting lost.

However, to be on the safe side, make a backup of the original config.

Old config should be in C:\ProgramData\filezilla-server (default path, can vary for non-standard installs). Access as Admin and make a backup the old-fashioned way.
