*What's* the problem?
You have myServer/wa1 and myServer/wa2, say they correspond to the
directories .../tomcat/webapps/wa1 and .../tomcat/webapps/wa2. Then
their respective web.xml files are located at
.../tomcat/webapps/wa1/WEB-INF/web.xml and
.../tomcat/webapps/wa2/WEB-INF/web.xml. In the first one, you put the
startup parameters for wa1, in the second, the ones for wa2.
Again, what's the problem?
Alternatively, you could put a configuration file somewhere in the
directory structure, put the startup parameters in there, and have the
web-app read them from there.
Somewhere, though, those two web-app directory structures are going to
have to differ if they're going to be different (i.e. have different
startup parameters).
