Rick:
You can license two different servers on the same system. However, you might want to be ready to explain this to BMC.

installing multiple AR Servers on one box
I have two AR Systems (one ARS 7/ITSM 6, the other ARS 7/ITSM 7) on the same box. I took my first system, detached the DB, did the second install (into a different directory structure), and then re-attached the first as something other than ARSystem. All I have to do to switch between the two is rename the db-name variable in my ar.cfg file and restart ARS. I even have both using ARAdmin as the DBO.
It can get a lot more complicated than that, as below posts have indicated. My intent was to show that it could also be pretty simple.
If you want to have two (or more) different ones up and running at the same time, there are also licensing issues to think about.

yes herb you are right,
but there is one
thing you COULD do with mid-tier. You can use 1 mid tier installation to point
to several AR servers.
