Yeah, just start the profile manager (firefox --ProfileManager), create a new profile, and then run the "other instance" with --profile NAME. Sometimes --no-remote is also helpful, so clicking on some links will not open them in this other profile.

This can also be done from within the browser: navigate to about:profiles.

You can, if you run Firefox with -P and profile name. I run two instances most days.
