Closing any window does not terminate the application,
unless you set it up so.  And there is no main window (well,
your app perhaps has a main window, but that concept is
introduced by the app, not by Gtk+).

So, do not terminate the app in the "destroy" callback of
the window, or disconnect the callback, or just stop doing
the thing that makes your app quit.  Then you can simply
destroy the first window when you show the second one.
