Same kernel with different module dirs

Hey Ubuntuers
Is it possible to tell the kernel which module dir to use?
E.g.: When I run kernel vmlinuz-2.6.28-11-generic, the kernel modules
are located in "/lib/modules/2.6.28-11-generic/". Now, I would like that
the kernel uses the module dir "/lib/modules/2.6.28-11-my-module/".
That would be nice because then I can make a copy of the original module
dir to "my-module" and do what ever I want with the kernel drivers
without damaging the original (provide by Ubuntu) modules dir.
When I want to go back to original Ubuntu, I just reboot without
specifying "my-modules".
Thanks, Thomas
