It can, but then you would have to configure your browser URL to request
the proxy to start a new session. You can use the HTML5 connection
dialog to set that up.

But this doesn't sound like the right approach here.
If all you want is a new session each time on that port, you could just
write a wrapper script that does:
while true; do
 xpra start ... --exit-with-children --no-deamon
done

And whenever the session is terminated, a new one will take its place.

Starting commands when a user logs in is quite easy:

You don't necessarily need to add this session to the "multifile"
authorization file: the proxy is capable of identifying existing
sessions for a user. (if there is more than one, you will need to
specify it in your connection string)
