No. See also below.

No, HTTP does not have sessions. The browser logs in on each and every
request sent to a proxy (or origin server requiring logins).

This makes the concept of a "session" or "connection time" a bit
tricky. But in theory it should be possible to emulate sessions by a
inactivity timeout.. (session starts on first requests, ends when
there hasn't been any requests for X minutes). This is on the todo
for Squid, but AFAIK there is noone working on it at this moment..
