Yes, android does keep multiple tasks stack : http://developer.android.com/guide/components/tasks-and-back-stack.html

A task is composed of many activities, sometimes from differnt programs. A task is a user task. For instance this allows you to

  • have a task that browse the web with a browser
  • have a task to write an email

you can then switch from one task to the other, for instance to copy paste a phone number from the web into an email. You will switch tasks by long-pressing the home button and get a list of all current tasks.
