How this would differ from the one which is already in i386
directory?

There is really nothing which would stop you from installing
firefox.i386 on an x86_64 installation.  'yum' will do that for you
gladly.  Just point it to a repository with required packages and
fire away.  There is likely no point then to have installed
firefox.x86_64 too and may even clash (a script /usr/bin/firefox
should not try to point to both sets of libraries at once :-).  The
same goes for mozilla.
