It's not easy.
Although you can (at least on Linux) mix-and-match dom0 kernel, the
hypervisor is tightly connected to userland programs (xend, xm, etc.).
Having two hypervisors is easy, but having both version of userland
programs is hard since (by default) it's installed in the same
location with the same name.

Since you can't activate both at the same time anyway, my suggestion
is to have separate root partition/LV for each version. Kinda like
dual boot.
