No, you can' have a CNAME at the top of a zone. A zone requires an SOA
and CNAMEs cannot co-exist with ANY other record.
Depending on exactly what you are trying to accomplish, you might get there by:
1. A DNAME in the parent. This aliases the entire domain, so this
might or might not do what you want.
2. Use a A (and other records as needed) instead of a CNAME.
