First, this sounds like a messy way to do it... spinning up another OS instance with the appropriate version of Apache you are after sounds cleaner...
I have a spare server but I want to use an under-utilised one.
As long as you keep your various Apache installs from stepping on each other (where the binaries, logs, configs live, etc), you just need to make sure they're binding to mutually exclusive IP/port pairs. The "Listen" directive is likely what you're after here.
That's what I am currently browsing Google for.
Can the 'Listen 1.2.3.4:80' statement be inside a Virtual Host section ?
Does the 'NameVirtualHost' statement affect every Virtual Host until the next encounter of it, IP that is ?
If I don't get an answer I'll probably experiment.
