Problem is that Squid in this case do not know who the real server is.

No, you just need a small helper application to Squid, telling Squid what to
do with the IP addresses. See the redirect_program directive and the Squid
FAQ chapter on redirectors.

This simple Perl script should do I think:

#!/usr/bin/perl -p
BEGIN { $| = 1; }
s%^http://10.0.26.54%http://www.your.domain% && next;
