Hi Jonathan
Yes, you can.
You can install the standalone version - it installs into a unique folder under C:\Program Files\
You can install using OSGeo4W and install the latest stable and development releases into OSGeo4W\apps\qgis and qgis-dev
However, having said this all installs (I have 2.0.1, 2.2 and 2.4 and 2.5dev installed) use the same .qgis2 folder in your user directory. So plugins that work for 2.2 but not 2.4 will show up as broken when using 2.4 but will work in 2.2. I am not sure how you can separate out the configs to have separate folders or each install. Maybe some env variable?
Cheers
Ross

Hi list,
I was wondering, is it possible to have multiple installs of QGIS at the same time on a Windows box?
I.e.:
2.2
2.4
2.6 (in a month)?
Or can you only have one? And does the answer vary depending on whether you're using the OSGeo installer or the standalone one?
Cheers,
Jonathan
