To my opinion this must be possible. All data needed for windows are in
separate directories that are not touched by OS/2. Make sure that the
directory pathes are included in the new config.sys. Make a copy of your
present config.sys to check afterwards that no data is lost.

I hope that also others are responding because as far as I can remind I had to 
delete all the 2.1 stuff before installing 3.0 to get is smoothly running.
