Yes, use Restrict
<http://geuz.org/gmsh/doc/texinfo/gmsh.html#index-Restrict-309>.  For
example, to refine just Plane Surface (9), use:

  Field[1] = MathEval;
  Field[1].F = "0.1";

  Field[2] = Restrict;
  Field[2].IField = 1;
  Field[2].FacesList = {9};

  Background Field = 2;

I attach a complete example.
