...except by hosting two different views of your DNS, one public, and
one internal.  That can be done using two different DNS servers, one
public-facing and the other entirely inside your firewall; or it can
be done by configuring bind to serve different views from the same
machine on different IPs.  I favor the former approach, unless
resources are an issue.

But, any machine that needs to be reachable by name from the outside
needs to have (at least) a public-facing A record.
