Should I upgrade from the olympus pen e pl9?

Before you spend on a new body, I'd look at your lenses first. The E-PL9 has in-body stabilisation, so a better lens often changes your pictures more than a new camera would. If you shoot in dim rooms or want more background blur, the Olympus M.Zuiko 25mm f/1.8 is a small, bright prime that frames like 50mm. If you want one fast zoom for everyday use, the Panasonic Leica DG 12-35mm f/2.8 covers a range of wide to standard. For travel, the Olympus M.Zuiko 12-100mm f/4 IS PRO does nearly everything in one lens.

If you still want a new body, Buying used explains why a camera one or two generations old is often the best value.
