Is there a way to specify directory for all jquery, instead of providing cdn path for each individual jquery file?

Say, in the bundles.config I have

<jsBundles>
    <add bundlePath="~/js/shared" minify ="true">
      <directories>
        <add directoryPath="~/scripts/jQuery/" searchPattern="*.js"></add>
        <add directoryPath="~/scripts/" searchPattern="*.js"></add>
      </directories>
      <!--
      <files>
        <add filePath="~/scripts/jscript1.js"></add>
        <add filePath="~/scripts/jscript2.js"></add>
      </files>
      -->
    </add>
  </jsBundles>

and I want to be able to add cdnPath for al jquery files.
