Yes. When I play stud8, I know the cards that are dead.
It's more simply remembering than memorizing. It has to do with short term memory... I parked my car four different places away from home today, and I know exactly where I parked at each of the four different places. But I don't remember where I parked a month ago.
I didn't memorize anything. I just remember where my car was parked.
And that's how it is playing stud games. Good players simply remember what cards have been shown and folded.
Can anyone multi-table and remember the cards from each individual game? I don't know. I can't. One table at a time is all I can handle. But I wouldn't be surprised if some players were able to play several tables at once and remember the discards from each table.
Some people have better short term memories than others.
