[Wine] Installing multiple wine version from Ubuntu Repository?

Probably I should ask this question to Ubuntu forums, but nevertheless...

Is possible to install multiple concurrent version of wine from the wine repositories? Reasons to prefer this to building from sources should be obvious, I suppose: easyness in regression testing, compatibility,  installation/removing...

I've tried looking to the build scripts of deb files, on the eventual possibility of creating a personal PPA, with different wine install paths (ie: /opt/wine-1.2, /opt/wine-1.1.44, etc. ) and different executable name ( /opt/wine-1.3/bin/wine1.3, for example), but I discovered that it's it's something well above my abilities.

manually downloading single deb files and extracting on a local folder doesn't work, of course.

Any suggestion?
