I just tried it after first removing Java from my machine for testing
- will also test with Java installed, should not make a difference.

Since I had FF running, I got the following message: "Another instance
of Firefox is already running. Please close other instances of Firefox
before launching Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition."

Ideally, we would also detect whether FF is running, and if so just
open a new tab? Otherwise, it seems we can configure FF portable to
run alongside FF:
