I don't believe you can. Boot Camp provides for creating one partition for Windows. There may be third party software which allows for creating multiple Windows partitions. But be careful, because some third party software such as Partition Magic does not understand the Mac OS X file system and can actually destroy your Mac partition in the process.

Regards.

I don't think it's possible (yet) - I tried partitioning my BootCamp Vista partition so I could install XP and have a triple boot scenario, but all it did was destroy the boot info for Windows and I could no longer boot except into OSX. I ended up deleting the BootCamp partition & starting over with a clean install of XP.
