I'm afraid that isn't possible right now. We do support an optimized implementation of if() pcds that only builds thisJoinPoint if the if() condition succeeds but if() can only use static information. (I'm talking code style here rather than annotation style). I have thought about improving that if() optimization for certain other situations but haven't had the time to look into it yet - you could raise an enhancement request where we could discuss it further in that. Possibly I had been thinking about exposing the aspect instance for use in the if(), maybe that plus a perthis() instantiation model would help your situation.
