Sort of. The cachemgr "active_clients" report gives a lot of details
about the client. You can scan it for clients with the username you are
searching for, and find from that the particular IP:port you will need
to do TCP level things to that connection. The IP may all be ocalhost,
but each client connection should will have a different port number.
