if <condition> then 
	put <parm2a> into parm2
else
	put <parm2b> into parm2
end if

myCommand parm1, parm2, parm3

I don't think it is possible and ... I think you are heading towards the single line Perl programming contest where they see who can write a single line of Perl that does something amazing and cannot be interpreted by a human.
