"Additionally, when you gain a levei in this class, you can choose one of the sorcerer spells you know and replace it with another spell from the sorcerer spelllist, which also must be of a levei for which you have spell slots."
So if you were alevel 4 Sorcerer and choose Darkvision as a spell when you leveled up to level 5 Sorcerer you can choose a level 3 spell for being a level 5 Sorcerer & swap out Darkvision to a level 3 spell if you wanted to and in a similar vein you could swap out a level 2 spell to take another level 1 spell when you level up.

I'm multiclassing a paladin 8 / Lock 3 / Sorc 9. I'd like to have 3 5th level sorc spells and have slots up to level 7. I would like to hold off taking a fourth level spell and take 2 fifth and swap in a 3rd.
Oh I see, that is then a matter for your DM as standardly you'd only get two 5th level spells (one for being 9th level and one for switching out a previous;y known spell), if I were your DM I would want you ot have a really good reason why you should have your extra 5th level spell, its not impossible (as you have gone warlock and paladin) that you strike a deal with your patron/god, you do it as a test of faith or devotion to go without a 4th level spell and if you are successful you get rewarded with the option of taking a 5th level but I would have some sort of quest attached to it, this would also depend on your build as i'd also likely want you to be 9th level Sorcerer before taking more than one level in either paladin or Warlock.

This is real or just theorycrafting? If just a one-shot, then does it matter?
RAW, you can't do what you want to do. You'd be better off dropping a level of Pal and picking up Sorc 10 and then you can do what you want, RAW.
Most Pally heavy builds don't cast spells anyway, they just burn smites left and right most the time for novas...

Can you delay taking spells so you can take more then one at a higher level?
Not sure why you would want to as the PHB says:
"Additionally, when you gain a levei in this class, you can choose one of the sorcerer spells you know and replace it with another spell from the sorcerer spelllist, which also must be of a levei for which you have spell slots."
So if you were alevel 4 Sorcerer and choose Darkvision as a spell when you leveled up to level 5 Sorcerer you can choose a level 3 spell for being a level 5 Sorcerer & swap out Darkvision to a level 3 spell if you wanted to and in a similar vein you could swap out a level 2 spell to take another level 1 spell when you level up.
