Actually my Samsung gear is NX100 & NX300 and:

16mm/ 30mm/ 45mm/ 60mm/ 85mm/ 20-50mm/ 18-50mm/ 50-200mm

Do you think Fuji XT-1 or XE-2 with 18-55mm/ 23mm/ 35mm / 56mm will give me better IQ and High Iso Work?

It will give you better IQ at High ISO (but not better IQ at low iso). 35mm is very slow to focus. All samples fro 56mm that i've seen look soft until stopped down to 2.0 (nx 85mm is clearly sharper wide open, however focal lenght is a but less useful for my purpose). 23mm is apparantly a  good lens, but very overpriced.

I think you could gie it a try, make comparison and let us know I'm eager to risk your money. But honestly I think you will spend 3x as much money as on Samsung and the improvement will be visible only in low light. Samsung lenses are good. You can as well invest in upcoming premium zoom 16-50 2-2.8, I will have better range and most likely better IQ than 18-55mm (plus it will be 1EV faster, which negates fuji IQ advantage).
