The chroot does exactly that, it gives you a full user space of a
different distro. If the kernel below it is compatible, which should
be the case if you do not try mixing levels with big age differences,
there should be no problem. You can look all kind of tutorials in
which people build and test things mixing distros, run 32bit apps with
64bit kernels, or even migrate from one distro to another by means of
chroots.
