This server also has configuration for the max allowed session. Now I want to use Nginx as load balancer. Does Nginx provide such kind of load balancing configuration: when a backend server can't accept new connection, the new session won't be created for this full server?

Just curious, why is it done this way?
If your server doesn't want to accept new connections,
then why it doesn't just reject them with some error code?
The commercial version of nginx is able to query such kind of URL.
See for details: http://nginx.org/r/health_check
