I have never used WCCP but looking at the squid wiki I would expect
connections to the Intranet from the client to go via the LAN
(bypassing squid) anyway (that assumes not client configuration).

There are a number of methods to bypass certain addresses or networks.
The simplest of which would be to add exclusions into the web browser
proxy configuration directly. I use WPAD on the installations I do
and it works very well (IE can have a stupid quirk if you have not
previously used a proxy on your LAN though).
