Sorry, I gave the code and missed the question.

No there's no way as you won't be sharing a connection to the MySQL server
and the LAST_INSERT_ID() MySQL function (or PHP function) returns the last
ID created for an insert on this connection.

No chance of cross-confusion, it'll work perfectly.

Cheers,
