It is 100% possible if you have a DRM free copy of the game. Just install it again on a different location.
As for Steam I'm not so sure, since I do not know the absolute specifics on that, but if it is possible then you will need to have two installations of Steam on your computer.

my amnesia game is now in D: Thing...
(not steam) if i install the amnesia game on my :E thing... will it be clear ? and work...
RE: possible to have 2 amnesia ? - Kreekakon - 09-18-2014
Yes, DRM copies of the game run independent of each other (Except for save games). Regarding assets, custom stories, and anything else the newly installed Amnesia will be a fresh copy.
I speak this from experience since I myself have three iterations of Amnesia installed (C:, D:, and Steam)

wow.. but that means that saves all exist on the new one but the ASSETS that i installed (custom) doesn't exist ?

Yes the assets come from the Amnesia's main installation folder. Reinstalling the game (Or installing it somewhere else new in this case) will result in a completely vanilla copy of Amnesia.
