Yes, you can dual boot both versions, but, you will need different keys for each installation. The package with 2 DVDs and 1 key only allows for a single installation of either, but not both. Search the internet for 'dual boot Win 7 64-bit and 32-bit' or variations for different methods and suggestions.

This link has info about several dual boot setups: http://apcmag.com/the_definitive_dualbooting_guide_linux_vista_and_xp_stepbystep.htm This link is about Vista and Win 7, but you would use the same procedure: http://apcmag.com/how_to_dual_boot_windows_vista_and_windows_7_vista_installed_first.htm Another approach that Microsoft has come up with is creating VHDs and dual booting that way. The main difference of dual booting VHDs is that you may only have access to the files in the system you booted inot, unless you can mount the VHD of the non-booted system within the booted system.
