I don't think that there is, but your question is somewhat vague -- is
this for second / third levels *within a domain you are authoritative
for*?

If so, *.example.com is the closest you can do without some serious futzing.
If you want to do this during recursion, nope, you cannot really
accomplish this with BIND -- not, even if you could, it sounds like a
really really bad idea.

What are you actually trying t odo?

I don't think the execution is relevant when it was obviously a bad
idea in the first place.
This is like putting rabid weasels in your pants, and later expressing
regret at having chosen those particular rabid weasels and that pair
of pants.
