Can I use MX records to deliver some addresses to Google Apps and some to my server?

I have whm installed on my VPS, which my domain MX records are pointing to:

 0:mail.mydomain.com

and whm/cpanel has mail forwarding rules which pipes certain @mydomain email addresses into my CRM software.

But for certain email addresses I want to forward into Google Apps. For example, [email protected], [email protected] pipes into cPanel --> CRM (mail.mydomain.com) but [email protected] should be going to Google MX records. Is that possible?

The reason why is I want to register for Google Apps such as analytics and other Google services under [email protected].

My initial thoughts were to add a subdomain such as [email protected] and point that subdomain's MX records to Google.. but I want to avoid this if possible.
