Updating Firefox or anything else while it is running won't bother yum. 
It may (and does) bother Firefox, when it tries to open a file that 
isn't there anymore, but all files it has open still exist, though 
without names, after they have been replaced or deleted.  That's how 
*nix filesystems work.

I restart Firefox after updating it.
