Xcode is only an IDE you use. In general, an IDE could switch freely.
BUT with IOS development you always work against a Base SDK that defines the abilities of the apple frameworks.

Now Xcode 7 comes with IOS SDK 9
Xcode 6 comes with IOS SDK 8

So Switching between Versions of Xcode also switches the base sdk (unless otherwise configured)

--> your app may behave differently with different base sdks. If that is acceptable though OR you don't see any change THEN switching is no issue

I switch all the time :)

EDIT: just saw the swift 2 tag. That is not supported in Xcode 6 so you can't switch

    then you can't run it on device.. not with xcode6 ... not without developer program – Daij-Djan Sep 16 '15 at 09:09
  • if you have it all setup, it doesn't matter which xcode – Daij-Djan Sep 16 '15 at 09:10
  • Look at the post from Mister Mister: He write: Just FYI: I installed Xcode 7 and tried running on my phone but I couldn't get all the build dependencies right, so I switched back to Xcode 6 and finally was able to run on my own device! Xcode 7 must add some license to your account that Xcode 6 recognizes :) – Mister Mister Jul 19 at 4:27 also i can run it or ? – Artist_Styler_57 Sep 16 '15 at 09:42
  • you aren't seriously asking plainly about doing unalloyed stuff.. I haven't voted to close yet but now you are plainly abusing SO – Daij-Djan Sep 16 '15 at 09:54
