Sam, Synchronize your role using different role names and you will be able to choose, which one of them to use on the farm. For example, you have an instance of role app-2009-07-01 and you synchronize it with the role name app-2009-07-10. After that, you'll see both this roles in the custom roles list on the Farm edit page .
