In Tomcat you can do it but not sure about other servers. You sent the context as crosscontext enabled in both web apps. The you can use the ServletContext.getContext("name") to get the ServletContext of the other web ap and then do a forward.
I guess since they have the getContext method that it should be doable in any server.
