No, neither Lucene nor Solr provide a "mask match" feature. You could write
custom code to emulate such a feature. Elasticsearch appears to have done
that with its "percolate" feature:

Subject: Re: Search for a mask that matches the requested string
I have no idea how can this help me. I have been using solr for a few weeks
and I'm not familiar with it yet. I'm asking for a very simple task, a way
to customize how solr matches a string, does this exist in solr ?

I'm using Solr 4.6
I need to store string masks in Solr. By masks, I mean strings that can
match other strings.
Then I need to search for masks that match the string I'm providing in my
query. For example, assume the following single-field document stored in
Solr:
{
"fieldA": "__A__"
}
I need to be able to find this document if I query the fieldA field with a
string like *12A34*, as the underscore "*_*" matches a single string. The
single string matching mechanism is my strict goal here, multiple string
matching won't be helpful.
I hope I was clear enough. Please elaborate because I'm not versatile with
solr and I haven't been using it for too long.
Thank you.
