If you already have X running and a desktop environment running on F7,
you can start a new one on F8 (from the console in F1, for example)
using:

  startx -- :1

So, for F12, it is

  startx -- :5

To run a different desktop environment/window manager, I believe you
need to change ~/.xinitrc (check with any online search engine for
more info).
