I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean here. Would something
like:

  rootprefix="/var/lib/dwww/html"
  rcfile    =print($section) "menu.html" 

in the /etc/menu-method/dwww script do? Then you'd get different
files in different directories, possibly just what you want.

BTW, this is _not_ going to work in the  menu_1.0 I'm about to release
this week, but if this is what you want, then at least it'll be
relatively easy to add.
