Yeah you can. It will automatically be configured. But still if you want a good Boot Manager then go for XOSL Extended Operating System Loader (XOSL)

Here is the download link *www.ranish.com/part/xosl115.zip

Hope This Helps

You dont need a third party bootloader. All Linux distroes will have either Grub or Lilo, two good Bootloaders, with them. During the installation, it will be configured automatically, so that all of your OSes are listed in the boot menu.
