If you are adding QTabWidgets to a main window derived from QMainWindow, you can try tabifyDockWidget. It tabifies two QDockWidgets just like you wanted and of course you are able to drag them.

dockWidget1 = new QDockWidget("Tab1") ;
dockWidget2 = new QDockWidget("Tab2") ;
this->addDockWidget(Qt::LeftDockWidgetArea ,  dockWidget1 );
this->addDockWidget(Qt::LeftDockWidgetArea ,  dockWidget2 );
this->tabifyDockWidget(dockWidget1,dockWidget2);
