Ideally it would be best, DDU is a good option for removing old drivers:

There's an option in Geforce Experience to do a clean install. If you download the driver and pick custom installation then in the following screen you can tick "Perform a clean install"

should i uninstall the intel 530 driver before installing the driver for my new 1070?

On a similar note, is it important to remove AMD drivers if I'm going to install Nvidia drivers and an Nvidia GPU? Or, can I leave both installed, so that I can switch GPUs if I need to?

 

And can I install Nvidia drivers without having an Nvidia GPU installed, and then later put the Nvidia GPU into my system and be all good to go, without problems?

The utility to install nvida drivers wouldn't let me install the driver cause I don't have the card yet getting it tomorrow

That is a wise choice to do, just to prevent problem from coming.
