You can use Node Version Manager script to install and manage multiple versions of nodejs.
First, you need to install it on your system.
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.33.8/install.sh | bash
This will download and install the script. Once the installation is over, do a
nvm ls-remote
This will list all the version of nodejs that is available for use.
...
v8.8.1
v8.9.0 (LTS: Carbon)
v8.9.1 (LTS: Carbon)
v8.9.2 (LTS: Carbon)
v8.9.3 (LTS: Carbon)
v8.9.4 (Latest LTS: Carbon)
v9.0.0
v9.1.0
v9.2.0
v9.2.1
v9.3.0
v9.4.0
...
It is recommended to use the recent LTS, so we need to use v8.9.4 (Latest LTS: Carbon)
.
nvm install v8.9.4

I can recommend the Node Version Manager. https://github.com/creationix/nvm
Just follow the instructions and there you go. Now you can install node.js version 9.40 like:
nvm install 9.4.0
and it will be automatically set to standard.
