Yes, that's no problem.

You need a bootloader.
It will display a menu at boot time and lets you choose which OS to boot.

So first make your choice which bootloader like GRUB or LILO.
Read about them a bit and take your choice...

I'd suggest to first install it on a floppy (if your computer has one),
to try it out.

Good luck, Robert Epprecht
