Yes it is possible and Squid already does.
If you check your cachemgr "ipcache" report you can see this as the DNS
results domain/IP mapping list OK/BAD flags on each IP address known.
BAD will not be used, OK will be tried, success is always a gamble.

The DNS lookup result TTL is used, whereupon the DNS server is expected
to give better working results. Or if all possible IP (both types) are
tried and all fail the markers are reset and it may be re-tried by some
other request.
