Sunil, Currently you cannot do this as you suggest. I refer to this a sharding, I have played with some prototype code that does this but still have not managed todo a full integration so it is in condition to be submitted as patch.
However, you could use an alternative approach, using subworkflow calls from the fork lanes, all calls to the same subworkflow app, but with different params. Hope this helps.
