No, why are you complicating things when are so simple.

1. [Set a static IP for each node machine](http://community.umbrel.com/t/how-to-set-a-static-ip-for-your-umbrel-machine/845/)
2. Use the each IP to access your nodes or just add in your local PC hosts file a different name for each node, like umbre1.local and umbrel2.local

Done. No complicated changes into node code.
