Currently, this is not possible.
You can use multiple profiles in Google Chrome, though. Read the instructions here.

- Enable multiple accounts: https://www.google.com/accounts/MultipleSessions
- Then, create a bookmark(let) or a keyboard shortcut for each mailbox:

MultiLogin is down from the google webstore, but there is an alternative (SessionBox) https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/sessionbox-beta/megbklhjamjbcafknkgmokldgolkdfig

So after being frustrated that such a simple plugin didn't exist, I made a script for launching a clean Chrome. It is called New Chrome Session.
https://bitbucket.org/bradisbell/new-chrome-session/overview
This creates a shortcut that launches a completely blank session, which tracks its own cookies and what not.
You can use this to login to multiple accounts simultaneously. It works great for Gmail and Facebook, as well as sites using basic auth. It should work for everything.
The only catch that I can see is that you can't use both within the same window. I don't think there is a way around this.
Anyway... enjoy!
