Yes you have only one xwiki.cfg which contains the default configuration for each wiki but "You can also setup the LDAP configuration in the XWiki.XWikiPreferences page by going to the object editor. Simply replace xwiki.authentication.ldap. with ldap_. For example xwiki.authentication.ldap.base_DN becomes ldap_base_DN."
You can install http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/LDAP+Application which is doing exactly that (modifying XWikiPreferences page) in the wikis you want to modify.
