yes.

consider:

folder-hook .   "source ~/.mutt/persona.default"
folder-hook FOO "source ~/.mutt/persona.foo"

~/.mutt/persona.default:
    set from=default at domain.tld

~/.mutt/persona.foo"
    set from=special at domain.tld

so, for all folder which conrain ".",
ie some arbitrary character, neomutt
will source the "persona.default"
file which sets "default at domain.tld"
as your sender address.

and when you enter a folder FOO
then it sources the "persona.foo" file
which sets special at domain.tld
as your sender address.

of course you can change any other option
within those sourced files, eg realname.

easy enough?
