Of course. Instead of relying on the AXFR or IXFR protocols, you can do 
something like this when the zone has been modified:

rsync -e ssh /path/to/zonefile remote:/path/to/zonefile && \
ssh remote "rndc reload"

You'll have to configure the slave so that it thinks it is a master for 
the zone. That can be a little confusing, but should work fine.
