Matthew,
I had a quick look at the developer help, but at first glance it looks
like this cannot be done at this moment. There a WMSRequest event which
passes the url, but since it's passed by value, you wouldn't be able to
alter it. There's more information, but I don't have time right now to
dive into it. Just have a look at the ArcGIS Developer Help (type "WMS"
in the index to see what's there).
And post to forums.esri.com, if you haven't done that already.
