WCAG does allow for “conforming alternate versions”[1]. However, it’s one of those areas companies think they’ve found a loophole and then quickly realize how impractical it is to maintain two entirely different applications.
If you’re going to go through all that effort, why not just build and maintain one application that is more accommodating?
Alternate versions are typically best reserved for minor feature flags (e.g., user given option to change colors to a high contrast non-brand palette), for instance, than wholly separate versions.
