Sadly, no. Apparently whoever designed that thought you'd never want easy access to two sets of search results at the same time. You can use the option to Display Results in Smart Find Group to keep the results of multiple searches around, but it's not nearly as convenient as what you could do in CW.
Results of past searches are also (to my surprise) available from the Find combo box in the Project Find window. If you pick a previous find, you get its previous find results in the window instantly.
You could file an enhancement request, but it would be another dup of a well-voted-on enhancement request that we're considering for a future release.
Well, how many votes is it going to take to get it done? ;-) This doesn't sound like a tough thing to change. Surely it must be a lot easier than some other requested enhancements, and the current system is a real productivity killer for me sometimes.
It used to be as-many-as-you-want in ProjectBuilder, but in Xcode 1.0 it got tangled in the Default/Condensed/All-in-One Layout issues, and the architectural issues of extracting it are not something that can be done casually in a dot release.
