Well, I can't see why you'd want to SNAT to an IP address that isn't
assigned to the interface in question? I don't know whether it would
work or not though.
As for DNAT, the destination address wouldn't necessarily be on the same
machine, so the answer is no.
Unless I'm misunderstanding your question?
