Hi GibsonLP2012,

Click-To-Run version of Office (Office 365 or Office 2013) supports side-by-side installation with Earlier versions of Office. However, we recommend that you use side-by-side installations only as part of your Office testing and pilots before you deploy it, and not as a long-term solution for your production environment.

Installing two different editions of Office 2013 on the same machine is not supported.
