That not possible. Udev can only match on properties of the device
ATTR or a parent device ATTRS.

The device node you want to set the group to is the usb_device, but
the match you want to do is on the usb_interface. At the moment the
usb_device event is handled, the usb_interface does not exist, so this
can never match. And from the usb_interface, which is a children and
comes after the usb_device, you can not change the parent device node.

Udev parses the usb descriptors and makes them available in a
property. That's the only way to access usb_interface properties from
the usb_device event.

Something like:
  SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{ID_USB_INTERFACES}="*:0b0000:*", GROUP= ...
should do it.
