Probably not. I just had a similar issue. According to the servlet specification, a browser that doesn't have cookies enabled must have all encoded URLs appended with the session ID in ";JSESSIONID=" fashion. According to the JSF specification, the encodeResourceURL is required to call the HttpServletRequest.encodeURL. This is the method that is required to append the JSESSIONID.
In my solution, I had a custom component, so I just stopped calling "encodeResourceURL", but with outputLink, I know of no such solution without overriding it. Perhaps there is something in the servlet specification of some switch you can add to your web.xml to stop this feature. I'm not sure (I stopped looking when I found a workaround).
