Barring a bug that prevents yum to install both of them to be installed
at the same time, you can install 8.4+9.0 RPMs on the same machine. See
this comment related to this bug, and how to workaround it:
http://people.planetpostgresql.org/devrim/index.php?/archives/48-What-is-new-in-PostgreSQL-9.0-RPMs.html#c202
(Actually it is not a bug, it was an oversight)
I have already fixed it in SVN, but I could not find time to build
updated packages (I'm at PgWest). I'll blog about it once the packages
are ready (maybe later today).
So download 9.0 RPMs from
http://yum.pgrpms.org/9.0/redhat/rhel-5-x86_64/
(The ones starting with postgresql90-*-9.0.1-* )
and install them manually as written in the comment above. That should
be enough.
