The problem you have is not exactly an "allow" or "deny" problem. 
Remember, when you request a zone transfer from named it needs to know 
which zone you want.  Because you are using views two zones with the same 
name can exist in different views.  Therefore, named must have a way of 
determining which zone *and* which view you are requesting before it can 
honor your request.  There are 2 ways named determines the view for a 
given request.  One is by the source IP of the request (match-clients) and 
the other is the destination IP of the request (match-destinations). Check 
the ARM for the syntax for these options.  It is worth noting that the use 
of 'match-destinations' will require multiple IP addresses on the name 
server.

So, the short answer to your question is most likely no.
