Can I use a data validation choice to choose to 1 of 2 input masks, within one field

1 New Member
Hi
I have to have my users input either postal code or zip code in Access. I want them to use lookup to choose either postal code or zip code from drop down and then the appropriate input mask to appear within that same field. is that possible?

Thanks.
