Is there a way I can get two forum modules (newBB) to run seperatly without using the same database?

I have little sql experience so if there is an easy way then great, if not, give me all the gritty details and I can have a play. Alternatively if there is no way then thanks for your time...

Hope some of you can help...

firstly, change table names in mysql.sql:
CREATE TABLE `bb_SOMETHING`
=>
CREATE TABLE `ANOTHERbb_SOMETHING`

THEN, change all
$db->prefix("bb_SOMETHING")
=>
$db->prefix("ANOTHERbb_SOMETHING")

xoops_version.php
$modversion['dirname'] = "newbb";
=>
$modversion['dirname'] = "ANOTHERnewbb";

$modversion['blocks'][x]['show_func'] = "b_newbb_SOMETHING_show";
=>
$modversion['blocks'][x]['show_func'] = "b_ANOTHERnewbb_SOMETHING_show";

$modversion['blocks'][x]['edit_func'] = "b_newbb_SOMETHING_edit";
=>
$modversion['blocks'][x]['edit_func'] = "b_ANOTHERnewbb_SOMETHING_edit";

blocks/newbb_new.php
function b_newbb_SOMETHING
=>
function b_ANOTHERnewbb_SOMETHING
