Example

// add to map
map.addSource('some id', {
   type: 'image',
   url: 'https://www.maplibre.org/images/foo.png',
   coordinates: [
       [-76.54, 39.18],
       [-76.52, 39.18],
       [-76.52, 39.17],
       [-76.54, 39.17]
   ]
});

// update coordinates
let mySource = map.getSource('some id');
mySource.setCoordinates([
    [-76.54335737228394, 39.18579907229748],
    [-76.52803659439087, 39.1838364847587],

    [-76.54520273208618, 39.17876344106642]
]);

// update url and coordinates simultaneously
mySource.updateImage({
   url: 'https://www.maplibre.org/images/bar.png',
   coordinates: [
       [-76.54335737228394, 39.18579907229748],
       [-76.52803659439087, 39.1838364847587],
