If you need more information about this, please contact Dovetail Games support directly. Our advice at Just Flight is to remove the boxed version of FSX prior to installing as this will give you the maximum amount of backwards compatibility with add-ons that either pre-date FSX Steam Edition, or have not been released with specific Steam Edition compatibility. However a message does appear at the end of the FSX SE installation process advising that it may be a good idea to remove the old version.
