All you have to to do is to rename the buffer to *MATLAB*.  Then it behaves 
like the matlab-shell, i.e. you can send code from matlab code buffers, etc.  
You could use "rename-buffer", i.e. "M-x rename-buffer", or use the following 
function (put the following code into ".emacs.d/init.el").  Restart your emacs 
and then "M-x rename-matlab".

(defun rename-matlab ()
  "Renames the current buffer to *MATLAB*. Useful when running several matlabs."
  (interactive)
  (rename-buffer "*MATLAB*")
)

Not completely sure how to do that.  I don't think that the matlab-mode must be 
changed for that.  Instead, you have to figure out how to create an emacs 
command that creates a new buffer e.g. for an 'ansi-term', then does ssh 
somewhere, and starts matlab.  Finally you rename the buffer to "*MATLAB*", 
that's it!  Possibly the people at http://stackoverflow.com/ can help you with 
writing the necessary elisp code.  I would be also interested in such a emacs 
command.

Best wishes,
Stefan.
