Yes.

acl non-work dstdomain .ebay.com .craigslist.com
delay_pools 1
delay_class 1 1
delay_parameters 1 1250/1250
delay_access 1 allow non-work
delay_access 1 deny all

Would define a single shared pool, with 1.25 kbytes/sec (10kbit/sec)
available bandwidth which would affect access to ebay.com,
craigslist.com and all of their subdomains.
