Best way to do it is to use two "hard drives". These can be two physically different hard drives, or two partitions on the same hard drive.
Begin by installing the older OS (such as Windows 98) on the main hard drive (the C drive) just like you would normally install it.
Once installed, start the setup for Windows XP. After you do the F8 to agree, it will ask you were you want to install Windows XP. Tell it to install on the second partition or hard drive.
Windows XP is smart enough to detect the version of Windows already installed on the first drive, and will create a Boot Menu. Everytime you start your computer you will be asked which version of Winodws you want to run. Normally if you do not pick a version, after 10 seconds it will default to XP.

Ya, Definitely.
Firstly, Install the Lower Version.
Ex: If you want to install Win98/Win2000 and WinXP.
First Install Win98/Win2000. Then WinXP on a "Separate Partition".
Note that Its Better to Install the Newer Version on a separate Partition. You can install both on a same partition but the partition becomes unstable.
