If I understand the question, you can do this:

192.168.1.9 nighthawk.dyndns.org nightscape.shadowland.net nightscape

and similar things.  This is what I've done for my web/mail/database server
that sits behind the firewall.

yes. that is my question. what about if you have 1000 host/domain name?
again, do not use DNS or other application, use /etc/hosts files only.

what I want to know is if we can use * in /etc/hosts file?
