But dont we need to consider about to ports when we are using two sql servers in same machine?

If SQL Server 2005 exists as a Named instance, then you can install SQL Server 2000 as a Default instance without any issues.
If SQL Server 2005 exists as Default instance already in the machine, then you can't do it since SQL Server 2000 tries to install as a Default instance only. In this case, you have to uninstall 2005 first and then install 2000.
