I think you want the geo module instead:

http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_geo_module.html

It supports the "include" directive inside the "geo" block.
(Currently it lacks the IPv6 support though.)

While not exactly what you want, but you can use the "split
clients" module to match $remote_port to a particular URL:

http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_split_clients_module.html

(This has a limitation: it will always give you the same
redirection URL over one persistent connection.)

http {
geo $wrapped {
127.0.0.1 1;
# include conf/wrapped.conf;
}

split_clients "${remote_port}AAA" $redirect {
33% http://url1;
33% http://url2;
* http://url3;
}

server {
if ($wrapped) {
return 301 $redirect;
}

location / {
return 200 "normal content";
}
}
}
