I got around to trying this myself. It does work I have:

In the main configuration:
	SetEnvIf Remote_Addr "192\.168\.0\.[0-9]{1,3}" dontlog

Within the virtual containers:
	CustomLog logs/access_v_tqm_log combined env=!dontlog 

At some point, it probably makes more sense to use one log which can be either piped or post-processed,
