maybe something like the following example in ~/.fonts.conf could work:

  <match target="pattern">
    <test name="family" qual="all"><string>sans-serif</string></test>
    <edit mode="assign_replace" name="family">
      <string>Helvetica</string>
    </edit>
    <edit mode="assign_replace" name="foundry">
      <string>Adobe</string>
    </edit>
  </match>

But I'm not sure if this is a good idea, since the font you choose might
only be suitable for a limited range of character sets. Maybe that could
be sorted out by adding additional "lang" tests...
