My understanding is that you cannot. The docs say that extends, if present
must be the first thing in the file (whitespace and maybe comments
notsithstanding).
But you could easily enough contrive the particular kind of control in
your example
by using if tags in base.html (or something that it in turn extends).
You probably
want to reverse the sense of the test, however to something like if no
hide_header,
so that unaware view/template combinations that extend base.html get the header
by default.
