Title: Can I use "checkinstall" after "make" on 0.13? Any examples? Guides?

Hello!

Can I use "checkinstall" (instead "make install") after "make" on compile BC 0.13?

Is there any examples? Guides?  

OR

May I use bitcoin-qt 0.13 without install? Like a bitcoin-qt 0.8 and some other.

I prefer a "portable versions"  :)

Yes, you can use Bitcoin Core (any version) without doing make install. Just using make is sufficient to build the binaries. The binaries themselves are src/bitcoind, src/bitcoin-cli, and src/qt/bitcoin-qt.
