I don't think EnergyPlus has a direct way to do this.

If you have a side calculation to determine the facade-heated-outdoor air's drybulb, you could assign it to the OA inlet node using EMS actuator for Outoor Air System Node Conditions.

It might be considered thermodynamically similiar to use the return air feature in WindowProperty:AirflowControl. The heat gets added to the return air instead of the outdoor air, but only the fraction of heat gained that goes out the relief air is lost from the unit.
