I have an Archicad 26 education license and am using that version but I need Archicad 18. Can I use Archicad 18 with my student license? And can I have both versions installed on the same
Operating system used: Windows 26

It could work if you have a valid EDU license but curious as to why as a student do you want to use a 10 year old version.

Version 26 can open a version 18 file, so you shouldn't need to install 18 at all.

Our instructor use old version of the archicad so I need to covert to ifc file to send them. But it broke the walls opening etc. How can translate with the same element types from archicad 26 to archicad 18.

If 18 can use IFC files, it is probably locked into a very old version that is not compatible with 26.
To save back from 26, you must 'Save As' a version 25 file. (change file type in save as dialogue).
Then open the file in 25 and save as 24.
Open in 24 and save as 23 - all the way back to 18.
So you will need to have all versions from 19 to 26 installed on your machine.
I would be telling your instructor it is time to upgrade.
He is not a very good instructor if he is still using version 18 which is nearly 10 years old.
