I confirm that the 4.1.0.3 can install alongside 4.0.4.2 on DEB systems, except for the application panels. One reason may be that they use the same ./config/libreoffice/4 folders.
I have 3.6.4.3, 4.0.4.2 and 4.1.0.3 all installed on two systems an Ubuntu 12.04 desktop and a Linux-Mint-Mate 13. I used the sudo dpkg -i *.deb method. I can run all three versions, but only one at a time. The application panels refer to the 4.0 version. These replaced the 3.6 panels when I added the 4.0 version. The 4.0 panels are still there when I added 4.1 as they were not updated when installing 4.1, So I assume you would need to uninstall 4.0 first. I manually created a soffice and swriter startup panels for 3.6 and 4.1 as the applications are held in separate /opt folders as libreoffice3.6, libreoffice4.0 and libreoffice4.1. However 4.0 and 4.1 both use the same ./config/libreoffice/4 folder, just as version 3.6 uses the /3 configuration folder. The earlier /beta version used ./config/libreofficedev/4 which did allow 4.0 and 4.1 to use different settings. I hope this helps a little bit..
