Yes you can.

Find an IP assigned to the interface you want traffic to go out. Use the
tcp_outgoing_addr directive and ACLs that match the requests to make sure
all the requests to that domain are assigned that outgoing address. Then
make sure the OS sends traffic from that IP out the right interface.
