This is trivially accomplished using Vim's tab pages. Simply do this,
for each file pair:
tabe /path/to/file1
diffsp /path/to/file2
Now you have diffs on each file pair open in separate tab pages.
Switch between them using the usual tab navigation commands:
gt = next tab
gT = previous tab
[count]gt = go to tab number given by [count].
The third command given above is more useful if you display the tab
number in the tabline.
