How to use two different askbot code bases?

Is there a way to have two different askbot versions installed on the same server?
For example, a www.server.com/release and a www.server.com/beta where the "release" would use 1 version of askbot (let's say 0.6.14) and the "beta" would use the latest out of the repository?

Note that instead of /release & beta, it would be just as good to have www.server.com as a regular apache port 80 deployed system and have www.server.com:8000 running the webBRICK server.

Basically, is there a variable I can set that indicates to an askbot installation: use .../site-packages/askbot-0.6.14 or use .../site-packages/askbot-beta?
