Yeah. When you install a new version of a package, it keeps the old one. The symlinks in /usr/local/bin or wherever point to the latest version, but you can still call the binaries (or link to the libraries) in the older version.

brew list to see what's installed. You can look in package directories to see all the versions; or call brew list --versions to see all packages and all versions.
