No. There is not.

You just boot the ISO and choose "Install them side by side" or
whatever it is...

As long as you have space to make partitions (e.g. you haven't used up
the maximum number of partitions, you can add to your heart's
content).

Good example:  My test netbook runs WinXP, Lucid, Maverick, Crunchbang
and Slax....
