Is there a better way than this?
Save the assembly under a new name. Open the part to be modified and save the part as a new part. Go back to the new assembly. Delete the old part. Insert the new part.

What is it you are trying to do? If you want to make a new assembly because it has a new part in it, I would just modify the part, save it with a new name, then save the assembly with a new name. Am I missing something?

You could use DBWorks PDM, with it you can use a function that allows you to duplicate whole assemblies in one go, and still keep the old version for history..
