I would think off the top of my head that this can't truely be done.... I am not able to test this but try this.... Have your VM have its networks settings as a BRIDGE connection. Then on your host PC just give your some some BS IP like 192.5.5.5 also a BS DNS server like 127.0.0.1. Not sure if that will work, but the way a bridge connection works it MAY work. Or, you can just manually set your host machines DNS to some BS number, i KNOW that will work. You truely won't be "offline" but it is about as close as you will get. I am not 100%.
