As far as I know you can happily install different versions in parallel.
You just need to make sure the service name is unique (e.g. by using
your application's name), that you initialize the PGDATA directory
somewhere that is app specific and finally make sure you are not using
the standard port for the communication.
I don't think an already installed Postgres would be "harmed" then.
