I need to upgrade my ASA 5545-x, I have updated to latest code and now I am attempting upgrade the the CX Module so that I can update the PRSM software.

For your setup I would recommend the latest CX module software. The upgrade procedure can be found in the configuration guides for the ASA.

If that is true, where in the documentation? and also, is it required to re-image the CX flash for that version?

not too hard to find:

When you upgrade the software for the first time I would recommend to use the "install" option and partition the CX first. Afterward the "upgrade" option worked for me quite nicely.

In your particular case the 9.2(1.4) your CX module is running is the latest release (as of this posting date) even though it is not the highest number (version 9.3(1.1) build 112 was actually released earlier).
Generally speaking though one upgrades the CX module via the PRSM GUI. You can do it via the cli; but the GUI is much easier as it allows you to drag and drop the upgrade package directly into the GUI to transfer the image.
Here's a link to the procedure.

That does not appear to be the case.
I need to be able to connect my CX Module and PRSM to my Microsoft AD, through the CDA. This does not appear to be possible using the 9.2.1.4 (5).
In reference to the comment before, there is nothing in the documentation relating to the process to upgrade the Boot code for the CX Module.

Your screenshot confirms what I said. You cannot upgrade 9.2(1.4) to 9.2(1.1) Build 112.
What is your separate issue about AD connections? CDA / AD support has been in the CX for a while now and does not depend on version 9.3 upgrade. Per the release notes, 9.3's only CDA-related enhancement was to add support for a secondary CDA.
