Yes.

The simplest solution is don't set the iframes src in the HTML, just declare the iframe tag and give it an id, say "myIframe".

Then just do some simple javascript.

var iframe = document.getElementById('myIframe');
if(window.location.href === SITE_1_URL){
   iframe.src = something;
} else {
   iframe.src = somethingElse;
}

Note the iframe doesn't load until its src property is set.
