Is it possible to create a Session variable in JS and then retrieve it in code-behind? Or create a session variable, and then set its value in JS? Thanks.

No. Session is a server-side concept only.

The only way to set a variable like that is for the javascript code to call a method on the server (AJAX'ish) and tell it what value to set in the Session.
