Can you explain more on what you are trying to achieve? Also, specify what session type you are using

Simply, this is not possible.

Session ID is kept in a cookie.
You cannot have two different sessions for the same application in one browser (a new tab or a new window - doesn't matter) at the same time.

Thank you for your consideration , but in the web.config i use "sessionstate cookieless="true" , then can i create a new user session in a new tab on a button click in asp

I am not sure, whether this is possible or not.
Refer - Session for a Tab in ASP.NET[^].

Just give it a try and let me know.

The normal behavior is to share the session across browser tabs.
To have different unique session created per tab can be done as you already indicated in the Comments as well as Tadit mentioned using cookieless option. But this approach not a recommended one.
