Not with the current mechanisms in FreeBSD. You'd need a simple policy 
routing engine (actually, policy forwarding). A prototype based on tun 
devices shouldn't be too hard to put together. Basically, you'd want to 
pick one of your links based on destination address and optionally the 
port pair.

We're putting something similar together for the DynaBone project 
(http://www.isi.edu/dynabone/), but it just got underway.

Ah, just caught the "session by session" part on second reading. In this 
case, my prior comment about packet-level striping and TCP is moot.
