Scenario 1:
---------------
Depending on how the credentials are passed it is possible: it is possible if you use authentication profile or if the login/password are sent through HTTP.
In this case you can ask the BIGIP to log that this login/passwd has been used for this specific source IP. This way if another IP use those credentials you can block it.
You can store those data in the BIGIP memory through the session command: Click here
Scenario 2:
---------------
If i understood correctly what you want to achieve is that if a user access a specific application you don't want another user to be able to open it. What you can achieve is to identify when a user connect to this application (based on the URI accessed?) and store this information. Until this user access finished to access this application you can deny access to this application to any other user.
The tricky part would be to handle how to identify when the user leave the application. If he accessed a specific URI like http://mysite.com/logout.asp then it's easy and we can even store a timeout for this entry in case the user close its browser.
So depending on some more detailed criterias (ex: do all the user come from the same Source IP address, etc...) the F5 should be able to do what you want to achieve.
I would advise to contact your F5 reseller he should be able to help you answer your request
