I think it's not possible "natively" to have this functionalty but I found these topics for Photoshop :

On this one, you will see a workflow which are well described.

I've not tested them but you should give it a try!

Thanks jefferson.bonnaire, The information you sent was helpful but it did not really solve the issue. I am Hoping that Adobe looks at this in the future. I use guidelines all the time and Sometimes wish I could have Multiple color guidelines to annotate a different measured area

Please post in the specific product forums (Illustrator and Photoshop) and ask for help, or mention an issue.
