You won't find the process id information in the kernel to userspace
message. The list of available fields is available in the
(linux_)nfnetlink_queue.h file:

https://git.netfilter.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=libnetfilter_queue.git;a=blob;f=include/libnetfilter_queue/linux_nfnetlink_queue.h;h=191b094b4ae071dddefb50d04b2c08b6fcadd488;hb=HEAD#l35

By the way, you will find some libnetfilter_queue documentation here:
http://www.nufw.org/doc/libnetfilter_queue/

PS: for your privately send question (please avoid this), you can't bind
two programs to the same queue.

BR,
