No.

Because your browser translates a domain name to an IP anyway. Your
server still has to perform an SSL handshake before it knows which
virtualhost will handle the request.

The only thing you could do, if all your vhosts are subdomains of the
same domain, is to use a wildcard ssl certificate.

So if you have
host1.domain.com
host2.domain.com

then you can get a ssl certificate for *.domain.com, and use that.
