Perhaps they do not.  I just did:

'M-x browse-url' twice, inputting two different urls, and still have
just one instance of firefox visible on the screen.  I can display the
two different pages by clicking the navigation toolbar arrows.

Before trying these functions, I could find no way by setting emacs
variables to start firefox if it was not already running.

There's probably a way, but I didn't find it. :(
