Nope. But you can could have either two complete
dtml-in loops, with conditional dtml-ifs around them.

<dtml-if "select=='All'">
  <dtml-in>
    ..
  </dtml-in>
<dtml-else>
  <dtml-in>
    ..
  </dtml-in>
</dtml-else>


Or, probably better

<dtml-in "_.test(select=='All', get_all_users(), get_select_users())">
  ..
</dtml-in>


(I'm assuming that get_all_users and get_select_users are callable. If
not, ditch the parens.)
