Yes there is.  Read my previous post 
(http://mailman.ds9a.nl/pipermail/lartc/2006q4/019935.html) for more 
information.  In short, what you want to do is enable IPTables (layer 3 
and up) to be able to operate on bridged (layer 2) traffic.  "Bridged 
IP/ARP packets filtering" will allow you to do exactly what you are 
wanting to do.
