Correct.
Think of all storage devices as tapes and you'll understand:
A device has one volume loaded at a time.
A device is addressed by its "Archive Device" entry in the SD conf.

And I assume you want these simultaneous jobs to go to different volume 
files, right?

I suppose you see the problem... one possible solution: Softlink your 
directories for storage. Use one directory, like...

ln -s /backup/bacula/btest-full /backup/bacula/btest

That should work IMO
