In your installation of Tomcat under TOMCAT_HOME_DIRECTORY/webapps you can create new folders for your projects. Just don't forget to create WEB-INF folder with web.xml document. More on directory structure here

I think it is possible to do, but in the 30 min search I was not able to find clear instructions, just hints on editing servlet.xml with some "context"
