It would be great to have an option to uninstall any existing version of nix before installing the new version. Something like a force option.

Uninstallation is complicated, particularly on macos: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/3900

Having a github action to do this would be very helpful.

Is this for self-hosted runners?

Yes, it would be useful for self-hosted runners.
