If you store the data in a file, simply redefine the zone type, change
"type master;" 
to
"type slave;"

If you don't keep slave zones in files, you are out of luck.

no.

the question apparently was, why do you need it. This is not an answer to
that question.

slaves can be slaves to multiple servers. Servers can have multiple roles.

ine server can fetch one zone from its master, but be a master to another
server for the same zone.

The one example of this case it the active directory. It supports multiple
masters, BUT:
a DNS server should not be DNS slave to multiple AD servers. The AD servers
contain the data, but serial numbers are unrealiable in this case.

I'm afraid the same would apply for your application.
