What you are after is almost certainly done better by some other means.
Maybe you should call a function. If it's OO maybe the argument should
be passed to the constructor. Maybe you should derive sub classes.
Maybe you should set a global variable (but probably not).
However, if you really want to do what you asked for, you can write your
own import() sub in your module, and then you can do whatever you want
with it.
