I don't know if it's able to do without new installation !

You would have to copy all the data off and back on; might as well
re-install.

What I suggested using gparted I did on a GPT formatted drive.  That
is, using GPT would not have helped you.  (I actually did the moves
on the running system, as those partitions weren't mounted, and the
resize from a live DVD.)  But if you just queue up all the things
in gparted and start it, you can walk away and come back when it is
done.

It does not matter whether a partition is primary or extended, and
there is no limit on the number of extended partitions, though they
get nested deeply.  The limits are on the size of the drive, which
won't change unless you replace the drive.  You don't need GPT.
