It should be fine as they are different families. If the peach was in a long time just make sure you add some feed of sorts. If you are still worried then replace as much soil as possible (personally I wouldn't worry about the latter)  :)

I was thinking of replacing some soil , the tree was only there since last year but it never did well .
theres not mu h on the tree branch wise but its nice and straight with equil branches .
