hoolio is correct; the browser will only keep one cookie for the site and present it no matter which tab is used to access the site.
There is one clever way around this, and that is to make the browser think that the two tabs have different sites. You could use iRules to add a fake random prefix to the hostname and strip it off before it sends the requests to the real servers. That would require a wildcard cert if you're doing SSL. Of course, it may not be OK for your users to see, for example, a hostname of h3852934510182.yoursite.com in their browser, in which case this wouldn't work.
