Sounds like the notion of Activation / Passivation combined with 
persistence mechanisms present in may Application servers.

ie You "activate" object prior to use and then when it is done with for now 
you passivate it. ie As things come out of pool they are activated and as 
they go back in they are passivated. (Thats taken a little liberty with 
explanation but you get the general idea).

For stateful objects in the above frameworks you persist the state prior to 
passivating and then reload it prior to coming back alive.

If you are seriously thinking about going down that path I would recomend 
you use standard java persistence mechanisms for persisting part.

Before you attempt this I would very veyr very very seriously consider 
whether you need it or not.
