I am not aware of an existing way to do this. By default, Asterisk does not
appear to be able to dynamically change the priority of a queue, which
seems to be what you are after.

On one of my systems I implemented the patch at
https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-17570 which, although it
does not do exactly what you are after, it does help a great deal.
Basically it dynamically increases the priority of callers based on their
hold time across all queues, so that for a given agent they will be
presented with the call having the longest wait time across all the queues
they are a member of. This has made a big difference to our avg hold time,
as queues are no longer competing against one anther for available agents.

Hope this helps.
