No, you are never specifying to actually upgrade the package with the 'u' flag. Running pacman -Sy archinstall would upgrade the package, since it would first refresh the package cache then reinstall the latest version.

Also, there's not really a benefit to using 2 'y's but it does add some extra stress to the package mirrors, so I would avoid doing that.
