We have big enough project which is built up with Swift 2.x and now Apple has just released Swift 4 so to move forward for latest version of Swift which path we can choose...
Do we need to migrate our code to Swift 3 first? Or we can directly migrate our code to Swift 4 using Xcode 9?

Go to project navigator> Build Settings. search for swift Compiler - Language and change this to desired version.
You will need to manually select the new scheme, then run Edit -> Convert -> To Current Swift Syntax to migrate the remaining schemes. Or you can create a scheme that includes all the targets from your project, and have it selected before running the migration assistant.
To convert just your project to the newer Swift version go to Edit -> Convert -> Convert to current swift syntax A popup will appear with a list of targets, including the pods. Deselect everything except your project target, the unit and UI tests and press convert.
You need to redownload Xcode 10.1 from this page, convert your code to Swift 4, then redownload Xcode 10.2 and convert to Swift 5. The only other option I can think of is changing your Swift Version in your apps bundle and then seeing if it lets you convert but I don't think it will. Show activity on this post.
Yes, you must migrate your code in Swift 3 compatible version. Xcode 9 allows conversion/migration from swift 3.0 only.
Swift 3.2 is supported by Xcode 9 & Xcode 8 both.
Convert your source code from Swift 2.0 to 3.2 using Xcode 8 and then continue with Xcode 9 (Swift 3.2 or 4).
For easier migration of your code, follow these steps: (it will help you to covert into latest version of swift supported by your Xcode Tool)

Yes, you first need to migrate your code from Swift 2 to Swift 3, using Xcode 8.
Xcode 8 is the last version to support Swift 2.
Starting with Xcode 9, the supported Swift versions are 3.2 and 4
