How to install Python 3.9 along with Python 3.8 in Arch Linux?

I'm working with tensorflow.
Recently Arch replaced  Python 3.8 with 3.9 and at the moment there is no tensorflow build for Python 3.9. Downgrading Python version for the whole system for that single reason do not looks like good idea for me. My goal is to create virtual environment with python 3.8. Is there a way to have both (3.8 and 3.9) versions available in the system? Python page of arch wiki doesn't mention that.

I know, I can use: virtualenv -p python3.8 py38 but I need an interpreter in the system.

thank you for any relpy

edit:thank you for all your rely

python-tensorflow is built with python 3.9.
