Hi I’m not sure I understand, but I’ll assume you have separate serial numbers for Soft, Maya, and Mudbox.
You can activate all the individual network licenses and download the .lic files, you don’t have to update the server until you are ready. Even then you can add just Softimage if that’s what you want. You can add the others later. I don’t know how activating separate Maya, Mudbox, and Softimage licenses could end up in a conflict, unless you have Suite licenses perhaps? Or multiple serials for each product? For network licenses, you have to stop the license server, yes. Also, you can run Softimage 2013 in trial mode for 30 days.

And I just want to install Soft 2013 and take a look at the goodies. Thank you Autodesk for making my day that much worse - grrr Morten
