While Fran's answer works great, there is a small flicker / hiccup in the UI when the page gets replaced. I took a slightly different approach by using insertPage() and changing the order of ops. The end result is smoother UI flow:

$scope.replacePreviousPage = function(url) {
      var pages = $scope.nav.getPages(),
          index = pages.length - 2;

      if (index < 0)
          return;

      $scope.nav.insertPage(index, url);
      pages.splice(index, 1);
};

You can create another function to encapsulate the replacing and popping, or just call them like:

$scope.replacePreviousPage('views/page1.html');
$scope.nav.popPage();

I am thinking of patching this into popPage() as an option (i.e. option.reloadPage) and submitting a pull request.
