It can, and it is.
The only way a Web server could distinguish between them is if the browsers
sent something unique per instance within the HTTP request. So, you could write
a browser that does this in theory, but that doesn't really do you much good
unless you can convince your users to use it.
It would be very unusual behavior, so I doubt anyone would want this.
