Not easily. It involves finding a fix for the route selection.

The problem is that squid can bind to the x.x.x.x as its outgoing IP but
it still runs through the OS route selection to send packets. This fixes
the bad selection of outgoing IP, but actual routing choices of what
interfaces are available/running cannot be fixed by Squid.
