Yep.  That's why the approach that LuaPlus uses works very well:

#ifdef _DEBUG
	const char* luaplusdllName = "LuaPlusD_1084.dll";
#else // _DEBUG
	const char* luaplusdllName = "LuaPlus_1084.dll";
#endif // _DEBUG

	char modulePath[MAX_PATH];
	GetModuleFileName(GetModuleHandle(luaplusdllName), modulePath,
_MAX_PATH);
	char* slashPtr = strrchr( modulePath, '\\' );
	slashPtr++;
	*slashPtr = 0;

At work, we use a lot of feature branches.  Each branch has a single copy of
LuaPlus in it.  All scripts are run using the branch local version of
LuaPlus.  By having the path to LuaPlus resolved this way, modules are
easily found branch local, too.

This approach works very well for us, and it might work well for Lua, too.
