So the clients don't support cookies but can be configured to send a custom HTTP header with a session ID? What kind of client is this?
In concept, TMM can persist on any request header or payload token. Headers are easier as TMM wouldn't need to buffer the request payloads. But it should be fairly simple to parse the HTTP header value and persist on it using 'persist uie':

TMM will store the token value and corresponding pool member IP:port. On each request where the client presents that token, they will be persisted to the same pool member.
