Yes, Windows 7 will overwrite the partition used by Ubuntu. In dual-booting, were two operating systems share the hard-drive (in separate partitions), you have a choice of either OS on boot-up. The recommended method is to install Windows first, then Ubuntu. Otherwise, if Windows is installed second it greedily takes over automatically at boot-up.

How can you reinstall Windows after installing ubuntu?
If you're installing it in a dual-boot system, you must have ample space left over. Additionally it's recommended you install Windows first, then the Linux distribution of your choice because Windows will overwrite the MBR with its bootloader and it will not recognize any Linux partitions (however, you can reinstall the bootloader if you pop in a live CD/USB later). If you're replacing Linux with Windows, use the partitioner of your choice in a live CD/USB and delete all the partitions (or just wipe by zeroing the disk) and start the Windows installer upon reboot.
