Couldn't a UDF get close to that?

Needs a bit of tweaking, but...

Accepts arrays for both patterns and replacements. From the docs:
<?php
$string = 'The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.';
$patterns[0] = '/quick/';
$patterns[1] = '/brown/';
$patterns[2] = '/fox/';
$replacements[2] = 'bear';
$replacements[1] = 'black';
$replacements[0] = 'slow';
echo preg_replace($patterns, $replacements, $string); ?>
But anyway, problem solved... In a way...
