    The first answer here might be what you’re looking for, though I would question why you need PHP 7.0 installed anyway if your script is going to run at 5.6, it may be easier to just use 5.6.

It is possible to have two different versions of PHP co-installed, but it is probably not worth the pain if you have other options. I would suggest using separate Droplets if you have two applications that require different versions of PHP. That said, there are some tools for working with multiple PHP versions. PHPBrew is probably the easiest and most used. It’s particularly useful for a development environment where you need to switch between versions.
