Eclipse installation is actually a zip file that can be extracted into some folder of your choice. You may have two Eclipse installed by naming the directories with a different name (e.g. eclipse_java and eclipse_php).

There is no problem with that because Eclipse doesn't store anything outside of its directory and the Workspace directory.
