This smells like you want your local recursor to provide different
answers for yourdomain.example than 'other' resolvers on the internet.
The easiest way to do that is to use the auth-zones[1] feature of the
PowerDNS Recursor. Or, if you need more control, you can forward queries
for yourdomain.example to another authoritative server (e.g. running on
the local loopback) using forward-zones[2].

If this is not your usecase, please provide the mailinglist with more
information.

Best regards,

Pieter
