Yes. The multiple concurrent client sessions talk to a single
telnet server via an intermediary. The intermediary serializes
the requests made by the multiple concurrent sessions and feeds
the resulting stream to the single telnet session.
A simpleminded way to do this might be to dump the requests
into files in a directory that's monitored by incron, which
then feeds the commands to, say, socat or nc (netcat).
(Incron is a nice intermediary because it isolates the
requests -- they can be monitored for correctness etc.)
I've no idea if this is the right approach for your application.
