No. A secondary (nor any DNS server) will never forward to a
Primary of the SAME zone. They are both authoritative.

The closest you can come to this are my two suggestions above:

1) Shadow DNS

2) Individual DNS ZONES for each separate 'record' that is to
be overridden internally

The latter only works if you are NOT using the zone name
internally for your resources (e.g., not using AD with the
same name.)
