Yes, but the ugliness factor isn't worth it IMHO.

I was wondering if something like this was possible:

config PHYS_OFFSET
        hex "Physical address of main memory" if MMU
        default DRAM_BASE if !MMU
        default 0x10000000 if FOO
        default 0x20000000 if BAR
        default 0x30000000 if BAZ
        default 0x00000000
