Will generating new APNS certificate invalidate existing active certificate

We already have existing valid APNS certificate for push notifications in production which will be expiring in a month. If I generate new certificate now, will it make existing certificate invalid?

Note:- I want to do this to get rid of window between the time certificate expires and generating a new certificate, so that push notifications do not get missed.
Edit:- With current architecture, it is not easy to immediately start using new certificate

No, generating a new APNS certificate will not invalidate your existing active certificate, and it will not affect your current push notification functionality. Push notification certificates are not part of your build, so you only need to change certificates on your server.
