If you run FreeBSD, you can do this cleanly with portupgrade utility.
cd /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade && make install clean

Then;

portupgrade squid

Make sure you watch what is happening, as there is, in most cases, a
message passed to you when the upgrade installation completes!

Also, always read squid.conf.default and see if some config options have
changed which require you to edit your current squid.conf.
