django update version without pip

I want to update my django version (1.8 ->1.9).
My current version was installed using pip (pip install Django) .
Now I need to install a newer version without pip.
I think I should run from the django package folder, using the setup.py file:

python setup.py install  

[I've installed some other packages using a setup.py file .]
The question - will that create some problems? And, does the setup.py install method take care for uninstalling the older version? Or I have to uninstall manually somehow?
I don't have internet connection in this computer, so no pip.

Download a release (they are available on GitHub), and copy to your computer.

Then use pip install to install the archive. For example

pip install django-1.9.3.tar.gz

For more ways to use pip install, see the docs.
