I can't speak regarding all Bible Study software, but I know that you can have parallel versions displayed in E-Sword and Logos so I suppose BibleWorks and Accordance have it as well. Another method that I recommend with either print books or with software is that the translation be placed underneath the Greek text so that it is quickly available if desired but requires a conscious effort to check. When you don't feel inclined to look at the translation then you are making progress.

No, I don't think there is.
The closest might be Oxford's "The Precise
Parallel New Testament" which has the Greek
from UBS 4 on the far left column with seven
translations across from and under it. No
parsing info, but if you don't recognize a
Greek form, one of the translations will
usually help you figure it out. I just recently
discovered this, and it is quite helpful even
if your Greek is pretty good, since a translation
is often the best grammatically commentary on
a text. Ironically, I think NT Greek learners
sometimes don't spend ENOUGH time looking
at translations, since if you are working on
the Greek text it is a hassle to look up the
passage in several translations. This book
allows you to do it without opening another
book.
Eventually, probably pretty soon, when books
go more digital, you will be able to custom order what
you have in mind, with Zerwick or Pershemheimer
placed under the Greek text of your choice facing
the English translation of your choice. Until then,
the NET diglot is I think the best single resource
available.
