Can these two co-exist on the same server? if so are there any tips & tricks to keep in mind to prevent any issues.

Both would be configured in a multi-instance setup

Thanks,
Daniel

    Yes they can, but it takes a bit of work. The multi-instance will help.
    The main issue is that 6.1 and 8 use different versions of Java and
    neither can use a version that is compatible with the other. So you
    just need to make sure that both required versions of Java are installed
    and separate and that each version of ColdFusion is using the proper
    version of Java.

    I have seen blogs that detail all of this, I presume a search of Google
    should turn up links to them.
