You might be able to use it in a RewriteCond directive. You would need then to craft a clever RewriteRule to get the result you want (eg, proxy back to an alias URL...)

The apache config file is just that - a file. It is not a programming language so doesn't really have the syntax for the if-then-else type of construct you want. Playing around with ENVs and RewriteConds gives you limited functionality but doesn't cover all the bases.
As others have stated, your problem might be that you are trying to impose a particular regime when the syntax doesn't readily support it. The simplest solution is just to copy the Directory block into each VH with different directives in each case.
