For example, my IPv6 connection to youtube.com is much slower that v4 connection, so I want to access it via v4. The simplest way to do this is to block AAAA records for youtube.com and all it's subdomains.

There's no direct facility to do this. What happens if you configure 
dnsmasq to return the undefined IPv6 address? ie:

--address=/youtube.com/::
