That's not currently possible. That information is only available to the 'network' plugin. However, it would be possible to let the network plugin add the remote host's IP address to all received value-lists using the meta-data mechanism. This could then be used in a new "match" plugin to check the reverse DNS with the hostname provided in the value- list.
