No, but there is a fantastic way of multiplexing multiple connections
over a single IP layer, it's called "TCP".
If this sounds a bit facetious, then it is - TCP is a multiplexing
method for a connection, and it's fine to use it - from the serv's
point of view, it's likely that there's *very* little resource
difference from servicing multiple TCP sessions compared to servicing
multiple client sessions in the same TCP stream - plus the server can
no longer take advantage of load balancing techniques so easily, or
even simple SRV.
