Good to see protein people using GNU Parallel.

Will this work?

cat file.tab | parallel -C '\t' 'echo {1}; echo {2} | myprogram
/dev/stdin' | output-processing-program > results.tab

Or maybe --tag is even better for your purpose?

cat file.tab | parallel --tag -C '\t' 'echo {2} | myprogram
/dev/stdin' | output-processing-program > results.tab
