My Mac 500 GB, 4 GB RAM have OS X El Capitan, Yosemite, and Mavericks. Will my Mac performance degrade using 3 OS X on the same machine? I mostly use 10.11.5 and occasionally 10.9.4.

I'm assuming you mean by multiboot and not something like virtualization:
Yeah, that should work fine, but I've never tried it. 500G may be a bit tight to support 3 different installs. I can't think of any reason it would degrade performance just having other versions installed on separate partitions.
Thanks for your replies. I want to keep 2 OS X including 10.11 and 10.9 since I want the older and newer version of the Disk Utilities.

There's no reason to do this. The El Capitan version of Disk Utility has the same functionality as previous versions, just with a different UI.
Disk Utility on OS X El Capitan is equally unfriendly therefore I keep an older version. I formatted a USB with FAT and it wasn't recognized on Windows PC. Reformatted again with the Mavericks DU and it was visible on Windows OS. This is just one case. Partitioning is sometimes a headache on the El Capitan which is why I keep a previous version of OS X.
