I routinely do this. Lets say you want to install two version of context,
context-beta and context-stable. Then, download and copy first-setup.sh in
both directories, and run:
cd context-beta && first-setup
cd context-stable && first-setup --context=current
Now, you can run
source path-to-context-beta/tex/setuptex && context filename
to compile a file using context beta and
source path-to-context-stable/tex/setptex && context filename
to compile a file using context stable.
