Azure load balancing rule based on source network

Is it possible with the Azure load balancer to create a load balancing rule based on source network? For example:

Connections from 10.1.0.0/16 to port 9000 go to backend port 9100

Connections from 10.2.0.0/16 to port 9000 go to backend port 9200

No, it's not possible because the frontend IP configuration only includes the IP address, protocol, and port. Refer here. Also, if you intend to configure an internal LB, then frontends and backends should be inside a virtual network.

A Load Balancer rule is used to define how traffic is distributed to the VMs. You define the frontend IP configuration for the incoming traffic and the backend IP pool to receive the traffic, along with the required source and destination port.

and

The frontend (aka VIP) is defined by a 3-tuple comprised of an IP address (public or internal), a transport protocol (UDP or TCP), and a port number from the load balancing rule.

For more information, you could read multiple frontends for Azure Load Balancer.
