Anything is possible if you're willing to write enough code, but...
The dbNameToAddr() routine is only for local PVs; CA links are implemented
using the code in dbCa, and initializing those links happens at iocInit() or
whenever the INP/OUT link value is changed. However there isn't really a
public API for that kind of thing, and I don't really recommend that you try
to do that.
It sounds to me like you're creating a new record type when maybe you should
be writing a State Notation Language program. Why don't you step back a bit
and reconsider what you're trying to do? Feel free to explain here if you
want more advice, but you will need to explain the bigger picture because I
wouldn't recommend trying what you describe above.
