Yes, or you can match based on input interface, which solves your
original problem if you rephrase the question "how can I bridge all
packets coming in from eth0 and none coming in from eth1?"

look at the -i and --physdev-in options

I would like to do something like that :

-->| eth0 |-------IP-->| Host |--->Some treatment based on sockets
| |------Everything else------>| eth1|-->

-->| eth1 | ---> | eth0 |

I think I can do that only with -i and -physdev-in.
I will think about it.
