Yes.  There is a caveat in that logging into multiple versions
simultaneously requires some configuration regarding the login cookies and
they will share auth data unless you modify it (i.e. you will forcibly be
logged into all using the same username).

I run 1.3 and 1.4 against the same pg server on the same Apache server.
 The only caveats are that you should probably set the login cookie value
to include the version in the ledgersmb.conf and you need to be aware that
the auth domain is the same.

If the auth domain is an issue we could look at trying to fix it by
including the version.
