To do exactly what you want can't be achieved.
However, you can do this in your web.xml:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>fred1</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.Fred.FredServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>someparam</init-param>
<init-value>xyz</init-value>
</servlet>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>fred2</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.Fred.FredServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>someparam</init-param>
<init-value>abc</init-value>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>fred1</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/firstfred/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>fred2</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/secondfred/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
There will be two copies of the servlet in the container, they will
be completely different instances but some communication is possible
using static methods and variables.
