If they ever change the archive format or something it may become a problem. I've seen that happen with other imaging programs where the new version images could not be restored with an old version rescue disk, but the new version program could restore using old version images. I always update my rescue media to be safe.
It is normal for an old version of the program not to be able to open the image file made by the new version, because the new version of the backup image may add new data elements, or may use new encryption and compression algorithms, so it is a good habit to always create a new rescue medium.
While normally not necessary, the update may contain also some small fixes or corrections also when creating the booting ISO, so I think it should preferably be updated. I always update all my ISOs.
