You mean like an environment variable?  No... although you could use the
environment variable KRB5_CONFIG to determine which krb5.conf file is
read.

Another possible direction is to arrange for SRV lookups to return the
best possible KDC, although putting that much cleverness into DNS isn't
always easy or wise.
