You will have multiple SCSI authentications to the same target IP address and port. Does the initiator port vary between them or is that the same too? If the same initiator port is used, I think there will be a problem. How would the conversants know which IPSEC QM SA to use to send a particular transaction? On outbound, from the point of view of the IPSEC driver, it sees a packet come down with a given IP and transport header. Based on this information, it decides which IKE QM SA the packet belongs to, if any. So the driver has no notion of WWUIs, and needs to make its decision purely based on the IP and transport headers. If there isn't anything in there that is different between the QM SAs, the driver will pick one, but it might not be the right one.
