Do you require the server name in STATIC_URL, meaning they're served on
a different hostname? If so, you can still solve your problem with nginx
rewrite module:
server {
# normal server, listen params etc
location /static/ {
rewrite ^/(.*)$ http://non/$1 last;
}
}
server {
# ssl, listen params, ssl params
location /static/ {
rewrite ^/(.*)$ https://secured/$1 last;
}
}

Then in settings.py:
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
