Windows Central Question

I want to have a dual booting Windows 7 and Windows 10 system. I do own two licenses so I believe I can do this legally.
The ideal would be for me to upgrade my Windows 7 Pro to Windows 10 Pro on my current D drive, after cloning an image of my D drive with Windows 7 on it, and then laying in that image into another partition on the same hard drive.
And then when Windows asked for activation of one or another of the installations I would type a different key for it, in order to activate and authenticate it.
But I suspect that the boot manager somehow would not be able to handle this situation and offer me either operating system at boot up time
 
THanks Charlatan but that method gives me a Clean Install of Win10 whereas I want the Win10 to be the upgrade so it includes all the program installations I keep on a different partition altogether.
