There is already a safe guard automatically built-into Windows Installer. If two or more of your installs actually try to install only the first one will install. The others will throw a message saying another install is already in progress. This is enforced by the _msiexecute mutex.
If you want to gate the situation earlier, you'll have to write your own custom actions to create your own custom mutex, tear it down when the install is complete and check for it when starting the install. However, I'd mark this problem as Functions as Designed and move on.
