Concurrent Crew and Tourist Visa for Oz

Sorry, didn't know where else to throw this in so I was hoping someone here could help.

I currently hold a crew visa for Australia, and I spend more time in Oz than anywhere else. I'm planning to visit some of my friends in QLD next month and because I have a foreign passport, I need a tourist visa to do so. I asked around and found that another crew member recently applied for a tourist visa which effectively cancelled his crew visa! Considering that my country is elegible for ETA style visas, the application is meant to be pretty painless, but if I get back and can't fly into Melbourne the next day I'll be done for.

Does anyone know if it is possible to hold the two visas concurrently? And which one I should apply for (600 or 601)?

Any info appreciated, thanks!
