As @ericosman said - use CustomBuild.

When logged in as admin user, go to Extra Features -> CustomBuild -> Options. Then select the PHP versions needed (php1_release being the default). Then go back to CustomBuild -> Updates and hit the "Update All" button.

When that is done, log in as the user you need to change PHP version for, got to Account Manager -> PHP Settings and select the PHP version you want to use for the specific domain.
