If i for example start top
. suspend it with Ctrl+Z
, then enter top
again the previously started instance will be continued in the foreground. How can i avoid this behaviour and just start a new instance?

You probably want to unset the option AUTO_RESUME:
AUTO_RESUME (-W)
Treat single word simple commands without redirection as candidates for resumption of an existing job.

4To start a new instance just this time, arrange for some part of the command name to be quoted, e.g.
\top
or=top
