Not sure abt the above syntax, maybe you can try this, in apt.conf

 RPM
 {
    Allow-Duplicated { "^mozilla$" ;};
    ....
 }

However, I don't advise this. You can't have duplicate entries I think.
Anyway..

1) Remove the older mozilla rpms and then upgrade to newer ones.

2) Don't upgrade mozilla rpms using apt, by holding it something like

           RPM
        {
                    Hold {"mozilla$"; };
                ....
        }
