Not unless you understand the consequences of forcing an uninstall (don't!).

Package management is there for a reason.  Those other package have been
built against the installed version of Mozilla.  It sounds like your 1.6
package is designed to install in different directories so that it doesn't
conflict.  Leave well enough alone and leave the old version on there.
