If you set the same install prefix for each build tree then you can build and install everything in one go:

ls -1 | xargs -n1 -I {} cmake --build {} --config Release --target install

Or you can create a CPackConfig.cmake file, which build the installer for you from each variant all in one go as well:

include("64/CPackConfig.cmake")
set(CPACK_INSTALL_CMAKE_PROJECTS
    "32;Foo;ALL;/"
    "64;Foo;ALL;/"
)
