Sure, you can do that with an iRule. The only thing changing from 'http://download-ourdomain.com/99_red_balloons.mp3?token=fjkld6y4re392fjfdkafdsa ' to 'http://download-ourdomain.com/GetFile?token=fjkl;d6y4re392fjfdkafdsa;' is the path. You can use HTTP::path to change this: 

 
 when HTTP_REQUEST { 
  
     Check if requested object is an mp3 
     (or use some other criteria to determine when to rewrite the path 
    if {[HTTP::path] ends_with ".mp3"}{ 
  
       HTTP::path "/GetFile" 
    } 
 }
