This is called "job control", so searching for job or jobs in
the manual page for the shell you are using should tell you
something about it.

Job control relates to jobs started from a shell; when you open another
virtual terminal and log in, you have another shell running that does
not, as far as I know, have access to the jobs run under the other shell.
So as far as I know, you can't do this.  But perhaps someone on
freebsd-questions would have a suggestion about this.
