I've built a fairly hacky solution to this before (for a different package manager) - it can be pretty simple:

    node_modules/
        versions/
            [email protected]
                node_modules/
                    c -> ../../[email protected]
            [email protected]
                node_modules/
                    c -> ../../[email protected]
            [email protected]/
            [email protected]/
        a -> versions/[email protected]
        b -> versions/[email protected]
        c -> versions/[email protected]

Some other people have linked to npm alternatives ied and pnpm which do essentially this.
