You can't do it, there are big differences between 3.4 and 4.0.

You can upgrade a content store from 3.4 to 4.0 but you can't cluster two different versions together. In particular the database schema and cache invalidation is different, there are also a host of other incompatibilities.

OK.

I wanted to do that because I need a feature of search Hit Hightlighing which seems to be unpossible in Alfesco 4.0 because of SOLR, and because the RM Module is not available in 4.0.
Therefore I thought I can combine the two Alfresco Versions.
Sometimes ago I have upgraded to 4.0 and then I have seen that RM is not coming soon…

Are you saying you have hit highlighting working with 3.4. You can still use lucene on 4.0 if you need to.
