Go to Google. Enter this search argument 'ibm mq multiple versions'.

I have got the link there are some restrictions as below can I install the new version of MQ ( in other words I do not want any issue with the existing mq)
due to the installation of new mq.
One installation can be an installation of IBM WebSphere MQ Version 7.0.1 at fix pack 6, or later. You now have a choice:
Keep the simplicity of maintaining and managing a single installation of IBM WebSphere MQ on a machine.
Take advantage of the flexibility offered by enabling multiple IBM WebSphere MQ installations.
Before you install multiple copies of IBM WebSphere MQ, you must make several decisions:
Will you have a copy of IBM WebSphere MQ Version 7.0.1 on the system?
When IBM WebSphere MQ Version 7.0.1 at fix pack 6, or later, is installed on the system, there are a number of restrictions to consider:
On UNIX and Linux systems, IBM WebSphere MQ Version 7.0.1 must be installed in the default location.
IBM WebSphere MQ Version 7.0.1 must be the first installation on a system. You cannot install IBM WebSphere MQ Version 7.0.1 after installing version 7.1, or later. If you uninstall version 7.0.1, it cannot be reinstalled while a later version of WebSphere MQ is installed.
IBM WebSphere MQ Version 7.0.1 is automatically the primary installation. You cannot select another installation as the primary installation while IBM WebSphere MQ Version 7.0.1 is installed. |

Ok. Keep searching for how-to implement multi-versions. Create a TEST environment to practice.
Sorry, no one can guarantee no issues will arise. Make sure you also have a fallback plan.

and remember that before working with any of the other versions, you'll need to source the environment using setmqenv...

MQ V7.0.1.6 is your primary installation. To use this, you will not need to use setmqenv.
If you wish to use the MQ V9.0.1 installation, then yes, you will need to use setmqenv.
Cheers,
