I suspect you could configure the backup tunnel then disable it.  Then use 
netwatch to check reachabilty of a host across the primary tunnel on down 
status, may involve changing route(s) as well.  On up status disable the backup 
tunnel and change the routes back.

I do something similar to enable / disable a vpn across a dsl link just to cut 
down on syslog noise when the dsl is down.

Depending on the cost of bytes across  your backup link, you might leave the 
backup tunnel connected all the time and just change route costs.
