It probably won't allow 2 instances of Firefox (TBB) running at once.

You may be able to use the stand alone profile mgr for Firefox 
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Profile_Manager
You'd have to add an entry in the profile mgr, to the location of TBB 
(firefox.exe).   So you can specify which Fx version to use w/ which 
profile.

Also have to create a new profile for TBB (in a location you choose), 
then launch TBB using that profile & do any modifications.
To use different TBB profiles, you'd have to launch the profile mgr each 
time (not a big deal).

Or, you could use the TBB / firefox ESR's native profile mgr, to create 
a 2nd, 3rd profile - perhaps? in same general location, but different 
folder.
Then you'd have to use one of the profile mgrs to select the profile to 
start each time.  Unless, most times you only use one - then it can be 
the default profile & only when needing a non-default profile would you 
need to start profile mgr to select that profile.

On any of these, it's a possibility you may have to manually edit 
profiles.ini (in Windows path:  Tor Browser\Data\Browser\profiles.ini.)
