There are various flags with names that include "fork" and "spawn" in the OAPB, OTCB, and THLI blocks, but they are certainly not Programming Interfaces. You could poke around at these to see if there is any reliable correlation. There are UNIX exits, including a post-process initiation exit, that you can install with CSVDYNEX et al, and that are passed a PEDB, which seems to contain the information you want at the time of process creation. If you are in a position to install such an exit (requires suitable authorization, of course) then you could capture what you need, and stash it away somewhere. This is described in the UNIX System Services Planning book. The PEDB is, of course, in Assembler Callable Services, and macro BPXYPEDB.
