Could NIX be used as a language package manager? Does it allow installing on cutting-edge code from random repositories? Can you only download something, without installing it? Can you access multiple versions of the same library from a single "project" (e.g. by using different aliases for different versions)?

Yes and with ease for the first two. Yes, but you may have to write some Nix code for the last.
