You have complete control over the Upgrade table, so you can choose to
leave
builds on side-by-side if you wish while removing very old versions that
are
not compatible with your side-by-side scheme at the same time.

It is a best practice if that's what you want. The WiX toolset ships with
the same UpgradeCode because they are not side-by-side.
