I don't think this would work, no - you could write an authentication
extension that would authenticate with cookies, yes, but I don't think this
would solve the issue you're seeing, because, once logged in, Guacamole
would still issue a token based on the LocalStorage method of storing data
within the browser, which would likely circumvent your cookie-based
authentication.

What is it that you're trying to accomplish, in the end?  Why do you
need/want two different sessions under two different accounts?  On the rare
occasions that I require this, I usually end up using Chrome's Incognito
mode for the second session, but I wouldn't consider my usage routine, so I
can understand that there might be situations that don't lend themselves
quite as easily to that.
