Not terribly difficult even. I'd suggest that you install the earlier 
versions first, and for each one install its bootloader at the beginning of 
its root (or /boot) partition, then install RH 7.3 and tell grub to add 
each of those bootable partitions as an "other" os. You could technically 
have grub manage the kernel and root fs selection for all your Linux 
versions, but this would mean that when you wanted to change kernel 
versions in 7.0, you'd have to access the /etc filesystem from your 7.3 
config first.

One thing to be careful of is that the newer Redhat (everything after 6.2 
perhaps?) distros tend to try to locate filesystems by label rather than by 
the device/partition number. This could confuse them quite a bit if you 
have say four filesystems named "/var".
