This was true a long time ago, but has been possible for a few years  
now.  See this section of the manual on STARTD_VM_EXPRS for more  
information:

  http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/manual/v6.8/3_3Configuration.html#12150

Our white paper on the Bologna Batch System may also be useful for a  
specific example of Condor VMs whose policy expressions reference one  
another:

(An updated version of the paper should be released soon, but the  
existing version should be helpful nonetheless.)

Good luck,
