You could set a custom "role" fact on node1 and node2 with the value
"webserver" and then use the "role" fact in your Hiera hierarchy.

For example using facter.d on on node1 and node2:

# cd /etc/facter/facts.d
# echo 'role: webserver' >> custom_facts.yaml
# facter -p role
role => webserver

and on the master:

# cat /etc/hiera.yaml
...
:hierarchy:
  - %{role}
...

with the common configuration in webserver.yaml under your Hiera datadir.
