The problem is not between koffice 2.3 and calligra 2.4, since calligra is an 
obvious upgrade path from 2.3, it would be like trying to make kde 4.4 and 4.5 
coinstallable. The problem would be between calligra 2.4, and a potential 2.4 
released based on further development of koffice/trunk.

As to why it is not worth the effort, in the event something get released from 
koffice/trunk, I find it unlikely that a user would want to have both 
installed at the same time. All in all, it is a big effort, and it has a near 
null gain.
