They can.

However, there is a compatibility issue with the ant build system: When NB 9 opens a project created with 8.2 it modifies the buildImpl.xml file to add support for Java 9 modules. Subsequently opening the project in 8.2 and then building it will fail, with a complaint about some missing ant stuff.
Editing the xml file to remove the offending ant code solves that.

At least, that was the case several months ago when I ran into this issue.

Hello, Can Netbeans 8.2 and Netbeans 9 coexist on the same machine? I wanted to install JEE on the 8.2 installation. Thanks.
