Yes. For each Microsoft Office or desktop applications license that was acquired through any of Microsoft’s Volume Licensing programs, customers have the right to install up to two instances of Office on one device for each license as long as the two installations of the desktop application are not accessed or used on more than one device. The second installation of Office or desktop application must be an older version of Office than the version licensed (e.g., license for Office 2007 Professional, and 2nd copy has to be Office 2003 Professional, Office XP, Office 2000 Professional or an earlier version).
