Don't know if this meets your requirements exactly, but it's certainly possible to do this manually. Split your drive into multiple partitions. Use one for /boot that will be shared across all installs. Create a partition for each Ubuntu version. Then copy a relevant menu entry from /boot/grub/grub.cnf to /etc/grub.d/40_custom, modified to set the root= param for each to point to the two partitions, and re-run update-grub. There's probably half a dozen other ways of doing it...
