No need to submit new PCC when passport is renewed.

Do i need to upload new passport when the application is in process

While we process your application, contact us if any information on your application changes or if you

• change your address
• plan to leave Canada for more than 2 weeks in a row
• can’t check your application status online and the normal processing time for your application has passed
• are charged with a crime
• applied as part of a group, but now want to continue the application by yourself
• need an accommodation or a waiver (exemption) for
  • the citizenship test
  • proving your English or French language skills
  • the oath of citizenship

They dont say it explicitly but there is no harm in sending it via webform. If the officer realizes it later, he may unnecessarly call you for an interview to check the same.
