Certificate Services support for SSL Host Headers

hi,
in process of implementing pki using active directory certificate services (windows server 2008, standard edition) in our office environment , came accross problem today. have iis servers, each hosting multiple sites using host headers. found information suggested require wildcard certificates ssl work in such case. question have is, can adcs issue wilcard certificates , avoid going 3rd party that?

thanks,
