not with new lightmaps, no, it would be an incredible waste of bandwidth. and a waste of time tbh.

You can load different skies per gameplay layer, as we've done on al basrah

however you would only be able to change the lighting (colours etc) if the sun was in teh same location on that new skytexture.

e.g. thats what we did on the new version of Jabal, the new sky had the sun in the same location, so we didn't need to redo many Lightmaps at all.

and that would be nice imo, changing between dawn, midday and dusk - however you'd have to just accept that the sun is in the wrong position most of the time

like a midday lighting but teh sun is strangely low, or a dusk lighting and the sun is strangely on the east instead of west (or north if the map accidentally put it there ;P)

hm yeah i see your point. but what about just removing the sun on every map?
so we could have every possible weather / time condition we want.
