How to backup two different iPhones on one computer?

I'm using iTunes on Windows and I usually backup on it rather than iCloud. I'm trying to backup two iPhones (each with a different Apple ID) on the same computer. Does anyone know if that is possible or not, and if it is, how so? Is it only possible by creating different user accounts on Windows and backing up each one separately? Or is there any other way?
I also want to be able to sync each iPhone for its different music, apps and so.
If anyone has tried this before please let me know.

iPhone 5
