Using variables in httpd.conf

[Paratus]

I'm not sure if this is possible or not.  I'd like to set my httpd.conf up with an alias that refers to a dynamic folder based on a subdomain.

 

For example, if they access the site through "blah.domain.com/files" I'd like the alias to direct to "/some/dir/blah/files".  It'd need to support any subdomain used.
