Not that I recall. I'm not sure what benefit you see in adding a feature to the BIND server and tools. I should have thought that a suitable script, either for provisioning your zone file(s) or for applying a dynamic update, would both relieve any burden you currently have, and leave you more flexibility than would an extension to BIND.
