Sure. Try myIpAddress().

I am doing something like that (or, if you want, the precise opposite)
in my proxy.pac file:

// If the client is not on one of the local networks (such as a roaming
// client), do not use the proxy server.
// local networks are mostly in 192.168.* but also some historical ones
if (!isInNet(myIpAddress(), "192.168.0.0", "255.255.0.0") &&
     !isInNet(myIpAddress(), "200.1.1.0", "255.255.255.0") &&
     !isInNet(myIpAddress(), "200.1.2.0", "255.255.255.0") &&
     !isInNet(myIpAddress(), "2.14.2.0", "255.255.255.0"))
         return "DIRECT";
