Quick note: you almost never was to catch "Exception", you almost always want 
to catch a particular Exception subtype such as ValueError.

Regarding your questuon: sure. Just examine the message. For example:

  try:
    ...
  except SomeException as e:
    if e.message == 'some specific string':
      ... handle that ...
    elif e.message.startswith('some prefix'):
      ... handle that ...
    elif ...
      ...
    else:
      # exception _not_ handled, reraise it for someone further out
      # to handle correctly
      raise
