As long as the previous install is not super ancient compared to the new version, when you restore the previous install it will upgrade the old data the next time jellyfin starts.
But I believe /var/lib/jellyfin/data/device.txt contains the server unique ID.
You also have to consider that even if you preserve just the ID, the token that your clients had will no longer be valid and they will have to log in again. And I believe that tokens are in the database.
