Answer 1

Technically you should be able to without any problems. Sometimes they do occur though. Take a look at this thread for some potential issues.

Answer 2

是的，有可能，其中之一需要是一个命名实例（这是唯一的陷阱）

Answer 3

Yes. I have SQL Server 2005 Express and 2008 Enterprise on my machine. I have the 2005 instance named.

I haven't run into any issues yet but you should look at Sev's link for potential problems.

Answer 4

No problem, as long as you install the 2005 version first - I wasn't able to re-install SQL 2005 once I had SQL 2008 on my dev machine.
