Multiple Client Installations

I need to test an Access application that uses an Oracle backend.

Currently I have a 8.0.5 setup for Client & Server. I have to test an 8.1.6 setup.
I have installed 8.1.6 on the server without any problems.

My first question is:
Is is feasible to install multiple oracle clients on the same machine without suffering any connection problems? All access to the server is via ODBC and I will use a separate version of the Access application in order that I can have distinct ODBC system DSN's.

My second question is:
How is the Oracle ODBC driver represented in the list box of the Drivers page of the ODBC Data Source Administrator? Does the 8.1.6 version have a different name?
