It is possible to run two versions, but it isn't easy.  The two instances likely will not be able to use the same data store (the newer version will automatically upgrade it and the older version will no longer understand it).  So with that caveat, it can be done.  But what is the point?

Run the TD using the command line option: "-tdnoconcurrencycheck".  This will allow a second instance to launch.  Note that there are caveats, in that you can lose information in your player database if both instances write to the database.  The application is not designed to run this way and thus is not a supported configuration.
