That would require the sampler to support loading more than one instrument per part, which is currently not meant to be in the scope of the sampler. However usually it works like this: master keyboards (usually) allow to configure "performances" with split zones. For each zone the master keyboard allows you to assign a MIDI program change number and MIDI channel. And since split zones may overlap on the keyboard, you can also create layered sounds this way. So this would exactly do the thing you described. To make it clear: when you select/recall a "performance" on your master keyboard, the keyboard will send for each defined split zone the zone's bank select & program change number on the zone's MIDI channel. This way you can switch/load multiple sampler sounds on multiple sampler parts automatically by just pressing one button on your master keyboard.
