I'm pretty sure it's not possible to do that from a windows perspective,
however the workaround that I've used (that has some advantages of its own)
is to run the bind dns server locally on my windows client machine,
configured as a resolver for localhost only, and configured with forward
zones for specific domains. It ends up working fairly well.
