from man jackd: $JACK_DEFAULT_SERVER  specifies  the  default  server  name.

you can actually run two instances of qjactl which will each control a
seperate jack instance if you start from the shell and have that
parameter defined. Your client program can use setenv() to change
default servers in order to have connections with both. It is up to
you to deal with the possibility of different buffer sizes or clock
skew etc. of course.
