Yes you can simply donwload the binary from the same wiki page (it has been compiled for dapper only so far). Just save the old file (just in case), and copy the new one over (you'll need sudo to do so).
To have it used by emc2 automatically, you'll have to put it into /etc/emc2/rtapi.conf in the list with the other rtai moduels to load automatically.
