Personally I installed Playonlinux for this (and other purposes), made it extremely easy to install Internet Explorer, and other browsers.

"Yes (see Iain's link), but it won't behave exactly the same as real IE versions. Whether it's on Windows or Linux, the ‘OS integration’ ensures that you can't have a reliable, genuine, multiple-IE install.

If your aim is proper, thorough testing of your websites across IE versions, the only option is to install each browser on a virtual machine. (I use VirtualBox, with an XP SP3 install copied three times, different IEs on each.)"
