Sort of.

The "directory" configuration is where named will start to look for 
files that don't use a fully qualified path.

zone "c1d1.tld" {
	type master;
	file "customer1/c1d1.tld.zone";
};

zone "c2d1.tld"
	type master;
	file "customer2/c2d1.tld.zone";
};

zone "c2d2.tld"
	type master;
	file "customer2/c2d2.tld.zone";
};

zone "c3d1.tld"
	type master;
	file "customer3/c3d1.tld.zone";
};

Here you are telling named to look for a customer1 or customer2 or 
customer3 subdirectory that is inside the directory specified in 
"directory".

You can also use fully qualified paths.

zone "c4d1.tld"
	type master;
	file "/home/customer4/c4d1.tld.zone";
};

zone "c5d1.tld"
	type master;
	file "/opt/someCrazyPath/customer5/c5d1.tld.zone";
};

I often keep master and slave zone files in separate directories under 
the named working directory.
