I think it's an all-or-nothing thing: if you want to save the session to
the DB, then everything in $_SESSION goes in.

You can easily replace the default session handler in PHP with your own:

  http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.session-set-save-handler.php

This is what Drupal does, for example, to save the session in the DB.

You probably need to read up a bit more on sessions in PHP:
