I think you can use powrshell to configure environment variable in applicationhost.config on IIS.

For example, if you want to set sites to development,create a powershell script to set environment variable to development. Just execute script in powershell or create a task schedule to auto execute it.(Same to set Production)

appcmd.exe set config "Default Web Site" -section:system.webServer/aspNetCore /environmentVariables.[name='ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT',value='Production'].value:"Development"  /commit:apphost

You can use this command to execute script.
