Is there a way to install Python 3.x on Centos 7.x without breaking anything that depends on an older version of Python? This server is a minimal Centos 7 install that primarily runs a simple LAMP setup.
Yes. Just don't delete 2.x version

yum install centos-release-scl yum search rh-python35
Install what you need, then you have a couple choices about how to use the SCL for Python 3.5. For your choices, see

Yes. # yum install python34

Yes. # yum install python34
I should have mentioned that python34 comes from the epel repo.
which can be installed from: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL#How_can_I_use_these_extra_packages.3F
# yum install python34
I already have epel installed. If it breaks something is it as simple as yum erase python34 to restore everything back to normal?

If it's in epel it will have been tested with RHEL/CentOS so shouldn't break anything. But yes, a yum erase should remove it.

be pretty hard to break anything, it installs...
/usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/python3.4
and puts all the runtime libs in /usr/lib64/python3.4
the default C7 python is...
/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python2 /usr/bin/python2.7
with libraries in /usr/lib64/python2.7
so no overlap at all. if you want python 3.4, you have to invoke it explicitly.
On a related note I need SNMP support to do snmpget and snmpset to devices with Python3. Is there an easy way to get that without breaking anything also?

I much prefer the Anaconda distribution of Python3. It installs for a single user and is completely self contained. Also much more recent versions are available:
