Is it possible (whether an additional license is necessary or not) to install a 2nd copy of WSN links on a single domain for testing purposes only?
There are some features of the new 4.1 version that I would like to use, but I do not want to upgrade my public site until I've worked out all the bugs and/or made corrections to any template changes that are necessary. I do know that I can install XAMPP to test changes locally, but I would like to be able to test changes in the same environment the public site is on.

To not count as an active license it should be locked off from the public in some way, like an .htaccess password prompt.

Yes that was the plan, it would only be for implementing changes prior to going live.
In that case I'm assuming it is phyiscally possible and the two installs won't interfere with each other. Perfect. Thank you.

Just use a different tables prefix (or database).
