Yes, you should do so and then reinstall the x2goserver and
x2goserver-xesssion packages. Doing so will reinstall the necessary
dependencies (e.g., nxagent).

Of course, you should do so via a local console or command-line SSH, not
via an X2Go session.

And if you have made any changes to files under /etc/x2go/, you should back
them up 1st.
