Well, you cannot directly unload an assembly, but you can unload a whole
appdomain, you could load your assembly inside and unload it when you want to
replace the assembly.

Another possibility (which is i think how other .net plugins work) is to rely
on interfaces and load a whole new assembly with a type that implements your
plugin interface(s).
