I have apache ssl, (1.3.31), installed on an AIX 5.2 system. We used an rpm.
I need to put a second instance on that same system. I went to install
using:
rpm -i apache_1.331+ssl.rpm --prefix /u03/newlocation

And it complained apache was already installed. Is there a way I can do this
without trashing my current installation?

You don't need to reinstall Apache to run multiple instances of the
same release of Apache. The common modules you already have can support
more than one instance. You just need unique config files for each
instance.... access,error, httpd.conf.... etc... Check this link out

You only need to reinstall the product if you want a different release of
Apache.

If you just want multiple instances, you can share the already installed modules
for both (or many). You just need different config files unique for each
instance.
Error logs, httpd.conf.... etc The link below is a good start:
