Not directly.

A related goal:
user1@??? never wants to receive *any* messages sent by herself

This one is quite easy:

discard_self:
driver = smartuser
domains = domain.com
local_parts = user1@???
condition = ${if eq{$sender_address}{$local_part@$domain}{yes}{no}}
new_address = :blackhole:

Generalizable with lookups if you have a file of such users. (Probably
easier to put everything into "condition".) It's harder if user1 only
doesn't want the message back when it was sent to alias1.
