Are such macros possible ?

modes: ma, mb, ... mz
values: va, vb, ... vz
command: cmd
parameter: p

(1) instead of

\doifmode{ma}{\cmd[name][va]}
\doifmode{mb}{\cmd[name][vb]}
...
\doifmode{mz}{\cmd[name][vz]}

a macro which does: \doifmode{m*}{\cmd[name][v*]}

(2) instead of

\doifmode{ma}{\cmd[p=va]}
\doifmode{mb}{\cmd[p=vb]}
...
\doifmode{mz}{\cmd[p=vz]}

a macro which does: \doifmode{m*}{\cmd[p=v*]}
