I have a PC installed with XFree86 version 3.3.5. The installation does

It should.
Currently, I am in need to update the existing X installation to include
XIE.
And, I need to do it without deleting the existing X installation.
Is it possible to do it by modifiying XF86Config file or is there any
other way to do it?
Please read the XF86Config man page you currently have installed.
Please find attached the XF86Config file of my current installation.
The man page I directed you to seems clear enough:
The Module section is used to specify which dynamic mod-
ules should be loaded. At present dynamic modules are
only used for XInput devices, and are only supported on
some systems (currently Linux ELF, FreeBSD 2.x and NetBSD
1.x). The entry available for this section is:
Load "module"
This instructs the server to load "module". If
the module is not specified with a full pathname,
the directories specified in the ModulePath are
searched. Modules are currently available to sup-
port extended input devices. The names of these
are:
xf86Elo.so
xf86MuTouch.so
xf86Jstk.so
xf86Wacom.so
xf86Summa.so
xf86AceCad.so
xf86Calcomp.so
xf86Dial.so
The PEX and XIE extension are also be available as
modules on some systems. The names for these are:
pex5.so
xie.so
For an up-to-date listing, check in
<XRoot>/lib/modules.
