Use a symlink (man ls) and add to your options the "FollowSymLinks"
keyword. Be sure to grant access to the other directory.

Example :
<Directory /somewhere/else>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

<Directory /home/*/public_html>
Options ... FollowSymLinks.
</Directory>

Be sure to understand possible security risks though (exposure of
sensible files). And read the doc :

Cheers,

Nicolas
