Yes, In fact I do that right now, You just have to go to the boot menu on start-up, and set the hard drive with the operating system you want to start up as the default. I have an XP, with an internal hard drive it is installed on. I have Ubuntu installed on an external hard drive, and I just choose which to start from. I use the f10 key to go to set-up, then I go to advanced and boot order, hard drives and change which one I want to start from.
