Although it is common practice to do so, no, it is not necessary to remove any window frame to install a new window assembly IF there is enough room in the wall thickness and opening to fit the new window in addition to the old one. Also, will that combination allow the new window to operate properly? And, will you be able to open both windows if it should become necessary? And will you be able to "live with" the appearance of the combo look? If your answers to all of the above are yes, then it is possible.

How do you measure a replacement window?
There are two main types of replacement windows: 1) those that fit entirely within the frame of the old window, and are hence smaller, and 2) those that assume you are removing the framing for the old window, and replacing it with a window of comparable size to the window which is being replaced. In both cases, you simply need the height and width of the space that will be filled by the new window. Deciding which option is best for you will depend upon your framing and window construction skills. Measuring the space for a replacement window is the easy part of the job - the difficult part is accessing how the replacement windows will look, and how much work you are prepared to do to make things look right.
