Swapping profiles in Windows

My company created an application that uses the swap profile api's
(QSYGETPH and QWTSETP) to help administrators control powerful profiles.
It works very well as long as the user is running applications on an
AS/400_iSeries_System i.  I've been asked if there is there a way to
accomplish the same thing in a Windows network environment.
 
For instance,  a web based application retrieves iSeries data and lets
the user read or change the data.  The user's Windows profile is used to
determine their rights,  not their OS/400 profile.  The web application
has it's own security scheme to assign 'read' rights or 'change' rights
even though they have 'change' rights to the data on the iSeries.    Is
there a way in Windows to 'swap' a Windows user id to another profile to
address this situation?  
 
Regards,
