No.  The "Mappings" tab of Zope 2.5's VHM allows you to enter a series 
of lines like this:

www.my1stsite.com/site1
www.another.org/orgs/another
*.spam.us/way/deep/down/folder

This instructs the VHM to send incoming requests with Host 
"www.my1stsite.com" to "/site1/", "www.another.org" to /orgs/another/", 
and any Host ending with ".spam.us" to "/way/deep/down/folder/".

Note that if you redirect the Host name that you use to manage your 
entire Zope, you'll need to use the raw IP address to access the root 
folder.
