It can be done but requires a bit of work to accomplish. All of Tytung's Jellybean ROMS install the data on SD-card to the same folder "NexusHD2-Jellybean". So installing more than one version at a time requires renaming folders and changing the symlinks pointing to them. Look here: http://androidforum.tytung.com/q-a-and-troubleshooting-for-nexushd2-jellybean-cm10-2-t79.html#p1366. He had a patch that did just that for v3.0 so that users could simultaneously have 2.6 and 3.0 installed together. If you're serious about trying, the easiest way would be to download that patch, unzip and edit it for what you're trying to accomplish, rezip then install. I hope this helps.

Edit: Now that I've had a chance to reread that post it seems more complicated than renaming folders. The initrd.gz has to be edited too.
