UPDATED:
Matt provided a great link on how to add emulators for all Samsung devices.

OLD:
To get the official Samsung Galaxy Tab emulator do the following:

  1. Open the Android SDK and AVD Manager
  2. Click on Available packages
  3. Expand the Third party Add-ons. There you will see Samsung Electronics add-ons.
  4. Once the add-on is installed create a new emulator. Under Target you will see the new Samsung Tab settings, select that.

That's it!
