In your af:tree nodeStamp facet you have access to the node (TreeItem in your case). If your TreeItem has a getter method for the url (you did not provide the TreeItem code) you can put an af:goLink in the nodeStamp and set the destination attribute to #{node.url} and set the TargetFrame of the golink to '_blank':
<af:tree ...>
  <f:facet name="nodeStamp">
    <af:goLink text="goLink 1" id="gl3" destination="#{node.url}" targetFrame="_blank"/>Timo
