use alternative view folder?

Hi,

if i add another subfolder in /app/view where i want to put
alternative view structure of the site, so for example for articles
folder i have following structure:

/app/
/view/
/_version2/
/articles/
/articles/

and i have 2 files
/app/view/articles/index.ctp and /app/view/_version2/articles/
index.ctp

In general i want to render view from alternative folder if that view
exists. something like:

if ("/app/view/_version2/xxxxxx/yyyyy.ctp" exists) {
render("/app/view/_version2/xxxxxx/yyyyy.ctp");
} else {
render("/app/view/xxxxxx/yyyyy.ctp");
}

is this possible?
i wanted to add such control in beforeRender, but seems there i can't
control which view to render, only to post variables to the view. Any
thoughts?

Thanks in advance
