It is. If you build squid 3.1 on your own, all you have to do is
specifying a specific --prefix path to the configure script.
The two copies will share nothing (you can have them share included
parts of the configuration afterwards).
There are other ways to obtain the result, but they are more complex
and of limited gain.
