I believe he is asking if it is possible to create them at the same time
not really run them at the same time. But that is good information for
him to know as well anyhow. But the only way to go about that is to do
the (make world DESTDIR=/path/to/jail#) for each jail that you need. Now
after the first initial build of world, if you didnt do a (make clean)
then you should beable to just (make installworld DESTDIR=/path/to/jail#)
and the new jail will apear there with the specified parameters that you
fed DESTDIR.

Hope this all helped you on your quest for knowledge.
