I have a number of Lazarus releases installed where 3.0.4 is the fpc used.
So they all used the same and there was no problem.
(This is on Ubuntu Linux 22.04 btw and I install everything from sources)

I have a similar problem, needing to give assistance to customers with different Lazarus versions. It's very annoying to maintain a program developed with an older version, and to make a minor correction, to be obliged to update a lot of other things which have been deprecated in the time between. My solution has been to use fpcupdeluxe. It provides a fully self contained set of Lazarus + fpc, which doesn't clash with anything else. Both Lazarus config and all of fpc config are contained in a specific folder, Lazarus launch icons on the screen are named from the folder you decided to use for that version, and you can have as many as you have space on your disk. Currently I have 7 different Lazarus/fpc sets to select from, from a Lazarus 1.6 to a Lazarus 2.2.6, plus a couple of Lazarus Trunk (one using trunk fpc, the other using stable fpc). Give it a try. It will not disturb anything of your current installations.
It takes a minimum to understand how it works, but then it's a paradise.
