In general, I do not think so. I am not aware of any software
that has been written for Squid to do that.

If *you* have some way of identifying PPP users on your system (for
example, looking for a username/ipaddr pair in a local file or
database), then you can write an external ACL program that will
interface to Squid and do what you want.
