You'll have to update your macOS to update the Contacts app.
If your OS is up to date, then the only way to get the newer version of Contacts will be to upgrade the macOS to a current version, probably Big Sur or Monterey, if your Mac is capable.
Why do you wish to update the Contacts app?
Use Software Update to update or upgrade macOS, including built-in apps like Safari.

❗️ Do NOT upgrade until you have made a Time Machine or other backup of your startup drive.
