Is it possible to have separate domain alias & redirection depending on subdirectory?

I need to set up the aliasing/redirection of a domain name depending on whether its in a subdirectory or not.

newdomain.com is an alias for parent.com/newdomain. This is set up as an alias in the hosting control panel and is working.

I need the url to appear differently depending on the file, e.g

I can use htaccess to control redirection, but I haven't found a way for it to control aliasing. Is this possible? Thanks

My answer is based on the assumption that newdomain.com and parent.com are being served from same Apache process.

Put this code in your .htaccess under DOCUMENT_ROOT directory of newdomain.com:

Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
# Turn mod_rewrite on
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?newdomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/+subdir/ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://parent.com/newdomain%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=302,NC]

Once you verify that it's working then change R=302 to R=301
