I believe the best you can hope for here is to use a separate file for the connection strings:

in app.config

<connectionStrings ConfigSource="myConnStr.config" />

in myConnStr.config:

<connectionStrings > 
  <add .... />
  <add .... />
</connectionStrings >

I believe you can set it at runtime using the SetDefaultConnectionString method:

SubSonic.DataService.GetInstance("InstanceName").SetDefaultConnectionString("ConnectionString");

Sample how to programatically hardcode connectionstring:

string connectionString = string.Format(@"Data Source={0}", Path.Combine(this.ConfigFolder, ConfigDb));
string providerName = @"System.Data.SQLite";
var provider = ProviderFactory.GetProvider(connectionString, providerName);
_configRepo = new SimpleRepository(provider, SimpleRepositoryOptions.RunMigrations);

This sample use sqlite database which is located in this.ConfigFolder. ConfigDB contains name of a database file.
