You can use tricks to put several boot isos, ie, more than one os.

But as iso, you can only put one.

As file, you can copy as many as you like, and then mount one on the 
destination computer. But if they are movies, for example, they will not 
play in a player.


I'm thinking that you could "burn" each iso separately to one partition. 
What that would achieve I can not really guess. It would do nothing 
worth, I think, but software could be designed to make use of that.
