No. There is no such possibility. However you can manually save sessions using a firefox addon called Save Session. And restore the saved sessions.

Click here to installSave Session Addon

Hope this helps you.!

Hope that logically not possible. Because firefox allows to restore the most recent session.

Isn't there some code or accessing hard-drive somehow to retrieve?

I'm sure there must be a way. You probably just don't know it. No offense. Thanks for your assistance

Firefox only keeps the session data of the previous session. Firefox does create a backup (upgrade.js-<build_id>) when you update Firefox.

You will normally find these files in the sessionstore-backups folder:

previous.js (cleanBackup: copy of sessionstore.js from previous session that was loaded successfully)
recovery.js (latest version of the sessionstore written during runtime)
recovery.bak (previous version of the sessionstore written during runtime)
upgrade.js-<build_id> (backup created during an upgrade of Firefox)

You can copy a file from the sessionstore-backups folder to the main profile and rename the file to sessionstore.js to replace the current file (make a backup copy of the current sessionstore.js).
