  I think it is possible.

A normal squid (proxy mode) will run on the port 3128 for any requests.
We will set the browser as ip-address and with 3128 port no.

client ----> server-ip + 3128 --> squid -----> internet....
                                             listens on 3128

Create a squid with listents on non-usable port (check with netstat -na )

client --> server-ip +3128 --> will go to the squid 1
client ---> server-ip+(other port) --> will go to the squid which listents on the other port.

I hope this method will consume lot of memory and run with reduced performance.
