I think that will require any usernames specified to come from
IP_address. I'm trying to allow certain usernames to come from any IP,
and restrict other usernames to a certain IP. Can that be done via
.htaccess?

You originally wanted "...logins from certain users to be from a certain IP
address"
Now, you want from "any IP"
In this case just restrict users with:
AuthName "restricted stuff"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/users
require user webmaster
Just assign "password and user" from root:
# htpasswd2 -c /etc/apache2/users your-user-name
