It's not a way to do that with the commony available browsers.

But if your client stations have ident servers, or you can install
something similar which can provide the identity of the currently logged
in user then it's fully possible to make Squid use this information.

Doable. The information would in such case plug in to Squid via the
external acl interface, and requires a shared database of some kind to
store the session..
