Sadly that's not possible using the default behavior - splashscreen must be located in root folder of your app with predefined file name.
What you can do though is simulate the start screen using initial custom page and show whatever you want there, something like Skype is using in their WP8 app.
Note, in WP8 apps it's no longer required to use splashscreens because the loading time for apps was significantly improved when comapring to WP7.
