I believe it can, but you still need to install Python packages to
somewhere that Python will look. Normal values for prefix are /usr and
/usr/local.

You'd have to ensure that the system ipython script (/usr/bin/ipython) came
before the other one on $PATH, and the system IPython package is first on
sys.path. If you want to use both versions, I would recommend installing
the new version in a virtualenv, then activate and deactivate the
virtualenv.

Newer versions of IPython require things that the older version of IPython
doesn't.
Make a virtualenv, activate it, and run:
pip install ipython[notebook]
This will get all the dependencies for it.
