This won't work as fastcgi_pass will be inherited into if(). You
should use internal redirect instead. Also it's a good idea to
use geo module for ip checks. So something like this should
work:

geo $static {
default 0;
x.x.x.x/32 1;
y.y.y.y/32 1;
z.z.z.z/32 1;
}

server {
...

location / {
if ($static) {
rewrite ^ /static/ last;
}
...
}

location /static/ {
internal;
alias /disk0/vhosts/blank/;
}

...
}
