Is it possible to install firefox 10, aurora and nightly on the same computer without them conflicting each other?

I would love to be able to use the stable release and at the same time I would like to see what's coming up in future releases and test them. I'm wondering if I can install all three of them and maybe even run them at the same time.

Do a custom install and install each version in its own program folder to use multiple Firefox versions.

Create a new profile exclusively for each Firefox version.
Create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch each Firefox version with its own profile.
