No, however, you can simply rename the current 1001bit_pro folder to any name (eg. 1001bit_pro_v1) then setup 1001bit Pro v2.
Your computer will only recognise the folder with the name '1001bit_pro'. If you choose to revert back to version 1, simply rename the 1001bit_pro(version 2) to something else, (eg. 1001bit_pro_v2) and rename the previous folder back to '1001bit_pro'.
