Yes, absolutely - just run them on different ports (assuming you're
connecting on TCP/IP). Set the "port" directive in postgresql.conf, and
restart.
for RHEL/Fedora/Centos type Linux systems using the PGDG RPMs from the yum repository, create a file
/etc/sysconfig/pgsql/postgresql-XX
(where postgresql-XX is the name of the init.d start/stop script for the version you're wanting to munge), and insert into that file the line...
PGPORT=5433
PGDATA=/u01/pgsql/9.2/data
(or whatever). you can add other environment variables that are used by the server.
you can also use this trick to run more than one instance of the same version of postgresql. first copy /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql-9.2 to another name, say postgresql-9.2B and then create /etc/sysconfig/pgsql/postgresql-9.2B with the alternate vales you want to use. now, `service postgresql-9.2B initdb` and start/stop it etc.
