Okular actually has multitab feature since version 0.19. If you are using Kubuntu 14.04 or above, you already get it. It's disabled by default. To enable it, go to menu Settings > Configure Okular > General > Program Features > give check to Open new files in tabs > OK.

Are you looking for multitab PDF viewer in Linux? Probably you want an alternative for Foxit Reader. Then use Qpdfview. It supports multitabbing. Also, it supports zooming, continuous view, fullscreen, properties viewing, sidebar, and so on. Fortunately, Qpdfview is available on Ubuntu official repository and many other distro repositories. Personally, I've used Qpdfview on my KDE as default PDF viewer because I always open many PDF files at once. I hope Qpdfview is useful for you too.
