Currently not.  We have removed multi-store support at one point
because we felt that it was not useful enough to warrant cluttering
the API with STORE arguments. I think that it is usually better to put
separate applications into distinct Lisp processed as that approach
provides better isolation.

If you need multiple stores in one application, doing so would involve
rebinding the store special variables in a WITH-STORE macro.  I can
add it if you need it, please let me know.  Note that operations
involving two stores will not be supported by that and I'd really
question if that would make sense.

Presently, there is little documentation and we hope to be able to
change that situation for the release.  In its present state, several
things are not working properly, so I can't really recommend trying to
use it.  We expect to have the functionality complete in April.
