Can I use both versions together, that is when I need to do serious work, I can work on 5 and when I do testing I can use version 6 (Aurora). So that both instances remain there, or else it will be that 6 will overwrite version 5 ??

I hope to explain my question ...

Install each version into their own unique Program Files folder, by using the Custom option on the first installation page.

Create new profiles exclusively for each version and then create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch each version with the appropriate profile.
