Now i would need to source a file with some others environment variables definition (actually an OpenFOAM environment definition). is it possible to source a bash file from condor configuration file?

This is covered here:

http://research.cs.wisc.edu/htcondor/manual/v8.1/3_3Configuration.html#SECTION00431400000000000000

Basically,

LOCAL_CONFIG_FILE=/path/to/script.sh|

The script output is parsed as configuration variables.

You can use STARTD_ATTRS to produce the labels (or, if they aren't static, use a STARTD_CRON to launch a script which outputs the labels) which appear in the machine's classad.

Then, you can use Requirements (http://research.cs.wisc.edu/htcondor/manual/v8.1/2_5Submitting_Job.html#SECTION00352000000000000000) in the jobs to make sure a given job requires a particular label to be present.
