Yes it is possible to update an image and keep the same URL.
When you upload the new image you want to make its public_id be the same as the existing image you're trying to replace. Then your Cloudinary account will be updated with the new image overriding the old one.
However note that if the original (older) image was already accessed, it might get cached in the CDN.
Here is a helpful article for further reading on how to update already existing images and how you can invalidate your resources on the CDN if need be:

You can do so by uploading the new image in the Media Library and giving it the same public id as the old image. This should ask you if you want to overwrite the image. You can also use the upload API and specify the public id in the upload as follows (here is a Ruby example): Cloudinary::Uploader.upload(filename, options = {public_id: "insert_here"}) This will replace the old image upon upload.

I just tested uploading an image to my account from the Media library with the same name as already existing name and it asked me whether or not I want to replace the original image. Are you using any upload preset? Cloudinary adds random string suffix if a public id already exists in the account and not number.
