On begin.html, I've written some code like:
<a target="_blank" href="test.php">Proceed</a>;
This makes the link open in a new tab/window. Simultaneously, I want to go to test2.php from begin.html by clicking on the same link. So, basically, at the end of my operation, one tab shows test2.php and the new tab shows test.php. Is it possible?

You need JavaScript to do that; and even with it it’s very likely the browser will block the second window thinking it’s a popup:
<button id="b">Click here</button>
document.getElementById("b").addEventListener("click", function() {
window.open("https://www.google.com", "_blank");
window.open("https://www.bing.com", "_blank");
}, false);
See this JSFiddle.

Considering you have test2.php in root folder as test.php. you can try it this way. Don't forget to add your javascript code inside a script tag.
<script>
function OpenNewPage() {
var win = window.open('test2.php', '_blank');
win.focus();
}
</script>
<a target="_blank" href="test.php" onclick="OpenNewPage();">Proceed</a>
