Balancing transactions on a single connection to different pools

I have a long-running TCP connection over which multiple transactions flow. Every transaction has a value that can be used as a 'key', allowing me to partition the transactions into two groups (e.g. key < 1000; key >= 1000). Is it possible to use an iRule to send 'group1' transactions to one pool and 'group2' to a different pool? The difficulty I'm running into is that I need a single TCP connection from the client side to result in two TCP connections on the F5 -- one to pool1 and one to pool2.
