You first have to configure, build, install one of the packages and
then configure, build, install the second one; and in the same target
create the binary .deb.

You'd have something like this:

build-stamp-qt3:
        dh_testdir
        ./configure --...

build-stamp-qt4:
        dh_testdir
        ./configure --...

build-qt4: build-stamp-qt4
        dh_testdir
        $(MAKE) ...

build-qt3: build-stamp-qt3
        dh_testdir
        $(MAKE) ...

install-qt3: build-qt3
        dh_testdir
        dh_testroot
        dh_installdirs
        DEST_DIR=debian/foo-qt3 $(MAKE) install

install-qt4: build-qt4
        dh_testdir
        dh_testroot
        dh_installdirs
        DEST_DIR=debian/foo-qt4 $(MAKE) install
