On windows, sure you can, I do it all the time...

But since Linux has 64 bit versions of Libreoffice, you don't *need* to 
install the 32 bit version... but as long as you have a 64 bit multilib 
system (capable of installing/running 32bit apps), then I'm sure you 
could install both versions.

The important thing is to install the *same* version (32 or 64 bit) as 
the version of Libreoffice (32 or 64 bit) that is installed. *They* 
*must* *match*.
