Set up DNS based URL forwarding in Amazon Route53

I’m trying to setup forwarding in Amazon Route53. My last DNS service (Nettica) allowed me to route requests to “aws.example.com” to “https://myaccount.signin.aws.amazon.com/console/”.

Is this functionality supported by Route53?

How does Nettica achieve this? Does it insert a special A, CNAME, PTR, or TXT record(s)?
