Using Palm OS with Mac OS X

Is it possible to run an older PalmOS 3.x device and a newer PalmOS 5.x device on the same Mac computer ?
I have an old Handspring Visor Edge that runs on Palm OS 3.5x that I used to sync with my G4 Mac using Palm Desktop 4.0.
I just bought a new Treo 650 that runs on Palm OS 5.x, that required that I upgrade my Palm Desktop application to 4.2.1, which is not compatible with my Visor.
I want to give the Visor to my wife to be used on her Mac User account, but I'm unable to sync because it won't work with the Palm 4.2 application, and I can't install two different Palm OS applications in the Mac applications folder.
So is it possible to run an older Palm device and a newer Palm device on the same Mac computer ?

PowerBook G4 1.5 Ghz, Mac OS X (10.3.9), 1 GB DDR SDRAM
