Well, not directly, but you could make the rootCommand in the style a shell
script that would alter the menu file.  Blackbox is smart enough to
recognize the change and update on-on-the-fly.

There have also been several different shell scripts posted to the list
that do things like make a menu of images to apply to the background, and
things like that.  Those also operate in real-time, so you could probably
create something that was smart enough to read the rc file and make a
decision based on the script, then modify itself.

If it were me, I'd write something for rootCommand that took two
arguments... the image I wanted to put on the root window, and the name of
the menu file.  I'd use bsetbg to set the root window, and then probably
symlink my chosen menu file to a generic name that'd appear in
~/.blackboxrc, so that I didn't have to edit the rc file in real-time.

Of course, you could always use sed and do exactly that, if you felt the
need.
