You would NOT use a semicolon in the scenario "To replace a conjunction."
Semicolons are typically used to connect closely related independent clauses or to separate items in a complex list, but they do not replace conjunctions like "and" or "but." Instead, a conjunction is used to link independent clauses directly.
