Yes. Just install the qt4 packages. They shouldn't conflict.

Also, make sure to install qtchooser. You can select the default Qt version by 
installing either qt4-default or qt5-default.

You can switch Qt version on the fly by exporting QT_SELECT=qt4 or 
QT_SELECT=qt5 before running qmake/cmake. This will override the default 
version for this terminal.

Hope this helps,
Michael
