Well, it's possible theoretically, but will need another piece of custom software that will understand DNS protocol and proxy it correctly based on actual incoming DNS queries.
I’m not familiar with how the daemon works, however could you set up two daemons listening local on different ports and with a separate daemon or normal dns server that proxies incoming queries to either domain? I don’t know if standard DNS servers would support that, or if you would need a custom proxy application.

That's unfortunate as it needs much more spendings from me to operate, second IP address will cost nearly as much as the server itself.
