multishell does not offer this functionality. You could possibly crash it and provide such functionality yourself, but that would be nontrivial. What do you want to accomplish?

Queueing a terminate event and then setting focus to another tab would work in some cases, but not all.

What do you mean when you say you want to stop "all" multi-tasking shells? Technically shutting down the computer would fulfill that criteria…
If you wish to disable the multishell system completely, see the settings API.

If you are wondering the code for that would look like that:Queueing a terminate event and then setting focus to another tab would work in some cases, but not all.
multishell.setFocus(pidtokill)
os.queueEvent("terminate")
