Not exactly. Data stored in session is held on the server. The
session middleware uses a cookie to give the client a session id so
that the session data can be tied back to that client. By default the
session cookie stays on the client for a couple of weeks, rather than
being removed when the browser is closed.
You can add your own cookies to the client to store whatever
information you need. By default they will be removed when the
browser is closed. These cookies are not related to the session.

Every view function returns an HttpResponse of some sort. You can add
your cookies to the response before returning it.
For example, if you had:
def index(request):
return render_to_response('index.html')
You could add a cookie before returning the response:
def index(request):
response = render_to_response('index.html')
response.set_cookie('test', value='test cookie was set')
return response
In this or another view you can then get the cookie back using:
request.COOKIES['test']
