Can the "Keep Until" value for cookies be set independently for "regular" cookies vs "third-party" cookies?

I would like "regular" cookies to be set to "Keep until: they expire" and "third-party" cookies set to "Keep until: I close Firefox". However, the "Keep until:" setting seems to apply to all cookies. I looked in "about:config" but don't see anything there, either.

The only way to do that would be to let all cookies expire if you close Firefox and create an allow exception for all regular cookies that you want to keep.
