No, sorry.
Apple Care One like other subscriptions will use the payment methods added to your Apple Account in the order that they appear in. There is no way to assign a payment method to a specific subscription.
You can make sure the payment method you want to use, is set as the first payment method under your Apple Account balance when the subscription is set to renew, and then move it down once its been charged however.
