Sure.

I do it all the time. I used to have a separate machine running
Win2K TS, and use Microsoft Remote Desktop from my Mac to connect to
the TS session on that server. But now I have several VMs with
Microsoft OSs, as well as several Linux VMs, and I run them all on my
MacBook.

Exactly. Each different VM is simply a file; a hard disk image that
the VM software uses. Each OS is installed on a different disk image.
What's cool now is that I'm working on a Python project that needs
to run in Windows, but I much prefer to edit the code in BBEdit, a
Mac text editor. So I set up the project folder on my Mac, and then
configure the WinXP VM to share that folder. So I can edit the code
in BBEdit, and then click on the adjoining WinXP window and test it.
Click back, edit some more, click back, test, etc.
