Yes. Several SQL Server 2000 virtual servers and stand-alone instances can coexist on the same computer. However, only the SQL Server 2000 virtual servers will fail over to other nodes in the cluster. The issues to consider are the same as those when multiple instances of SQL Server 2000 reside on the same computer.
