No, but you can likely achieve whatever result you're trying to

things the normal way. (But there may be little to nothing you can do
about applications that do things their own way.)

well, for example, i need to get file using wget
http://www.mycompany.com

use the IP address.

http://111.222.333.44


but i mycomapny.com cannot be allowed to define in /etc/hosts, what can
i do?

Why not? And why is www.mycompany.com not in the dns tables?
