Hello !

I don't think you could make Windows that intelligent.
When resolving a name, windows first looks in the hosts file for hard coded 
addresses, then try a dns and/or wins query (depending on how your system 
is configured). I don't think you could reverse the search order, that is 
look in the host file when there is no network present. (even if windows is 
able to "sense" the presence of a network connection).
