What you are suggesting may be true for JBoss. But I have it practically not working on OC4J.
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/web.1013/b28952/opensrc.htm#i637153 According to this article, log4j.xml or log4j.properties plays the same role. I do have separate log4j.properties configured for each web application, pointing to different log directory and file name. But still it picks up the one which deploys first. Looks like limitation of OC4J. So that is why I am looking for option without using log4j at all.

Log4j allows for defining and using multiple log configurations in a single JVM. This is accomplished by using a RepositorySelector to manage the multiple log hierarchies. See http://community.jboss.org/wiki/Log4jrepositoryselector for a web container example.
