Can we create a new session when one valid session is already existing for a specific user? If yes, then how ?

Yes , you can.
invalidate the session that's existing.
Create a new session using request.getSession(true) . session.isNew() should return true.

hi, not to hijack the thread, just a follow up question. Does creating a new session while another session is alive automatically invalidates the old/previous session? Is it possible to have two live sessions in a webapp? Im planning to try this later but until then maybe you can give some insights. Thanks.

@lhorenz
Firstly , you cannot create a new session , when a session exists.

request.getSession() , would return existing session if exists , so its not possible . may be you can try to hack others session as you did with thread

Thanks Balu, good point for both session and thread-jacking
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
