how to configure more than four workers on matlab session?

If a client is having matlab with 4 workers these four workers could be subdivided into more workers say 8 each for a total of 32 sessions running in parallel. If possible as you might get to make this division. This is because currently have come to have a client and four workers only.

A session that is allocated from a matlabpool cannot open a matlabpool.

If you were running four different MATLAB processes, then each of them could potentially open a pool.

Note that R2013b allows up to 12 local workers, so you might wish to upgrade.
