Yup. It's quite easy. Basically, on the new Siri remote, you'll scroll off
the main home screen to settings, then under settings, go down to account.
In here, you can sign out the current user, or you can add another account.
Once multiple accounts are added, you simply just go back to this screen,
and flip flop it over to the person's account that yu want to use.
As for preferences, what preferences are you referring to? You can't
literally set different Voiceover preferences, or hide certain things from
the home screen, or install certain apps just for one user, if that's what
you're asking. All it does to sign into another account is to allow access
to that user's content they've purchased such as music, movies, TV shows,
etc. Plus, obviously, it'll link to the billing info on file with that
user. So, say for instance, your spouce/significant other wants to buy a
movie, but you don't want it. She could sign into her own account, buy it,
then it would be charged to her payment method, and not to your's.

Subject: Multiple iTunes accounts on Apple TV?
Hey all,
We don't have an Apple TV, but I'm considering it. The thing is, everyone
has their own Apple account, and we all pay for our own items, so family
sharing doesn't make sense for us. On the Apple TV, is there a quick way for
whoever is using the TV to switch to their account and thus access their
purchased items or streaming services? How would that affect the available
apps, or the preferences in use? I'm talking about the newest TV, if that
matters. Thanks.
