yes, there is actually a pretty easy way to do this, and the location of the code depends on where you want it applied.
In my own site, I have 2 separate layouts, one for logged in users, one for non-logged in users. in my app_controller.php file, I have the following code set up in the beforeFilter function. $this->layout = (logged in or not logic here)?'game':'default'; you can also place this logic in the beforeFilter function of any one of your controllers for more flexibility. $this->layout = 'choose layout here' will let you change the layout in any function in any controller.
