You sort of can on the outbond side by using the route-to option and using
multiple matching interface/gateways.
....Route-to { if1 gw1, if1 gw1, if2 gw2 } round-robin...
This would prefer if1 over if2 for 2/3 the traffic.
Sorry if the syntax isn't quite right as I sent this from my phone. Also be
aware that this can break some web-sites, like YouTube. You can try the
sticky option, but last I tried (4.1 days) it didn't quite work.

Subject: Re: Using 2 internet connections on OpenBSD Gateway
And... What if both connections doesn't have the same upstream
bandwidth? Would it be possible to load-balance both Internet
connections considering the upload/donwload capacity of each one, and
not using a round-robin load balancing, which assigns a nearly to 50/50
load?
