I don't know of any over the counter - if you will - way to do what - I
think - you want to do.

Are these the IP addresses that the names in the following SRV records
resolve to?

What does "same range" mean in this context?
Is it the client's IP range? Or is it the server's IP range? Or some
reference to _http-apps vs _http-demo?
To me, the following three owner names are completely independent of
each other.
- server.test.marathon.mesos
- _http-apps._server.test._tcp.marathon.mesos
- _http-demo._server.test._tcp.marathon.mesos
I see how we as humans can probably correlate the three. But I don't
see how BIND will do it.

That seems like a simple enough alias. Simple enough that I think that
it's existence can largely be ignored and focus on the IP extraction
from SRV record(s) that I think you're asking about.

How are you going to convey the "???" portion in the owner name of the
DNS query?

I don't think what - I'm speculating - you want is possible as is with
stock BIND.
I do wonder if you might be able to write a custom Dynamic Loadable Zone
database (?) driver that might be able to do what you want.
Specifically, if you could create a DLZ driver that could take the query
name, apply some logic to it (to determine the "???" above), perform the
proper resolution of the SRV record(s), post process, and return the
desired result to the original DNS query.

Aside: I think this is atypical of BIND. But I also think that it
/may/ be in BIND's wheel house to ... hack a possible solution to.
Further aside: I have wondered about a custom DLZ that would return the
client's IP address (as seen by the server). I'd like to roll my own
"what's my IP" type service. }:-)
