See "User Hive settings set during logon..." for more detail. The short story is that Win32_NTDomain should work if you also filter on the caption attribute.

I have tried a few things without success 1) WMI Filters using Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration attributes - all the useful attributes (ip address, default gateway, etc) are in arrays and WQL does not handle arrays. 2) Script to change the registry settings deployed by group policy using ADSystemInfo.SiteName - the script required admin rights to make changes to the registry, but this also resulted in setting that end up tattooed (they don't go away)!. Also this variable could not be used for a WMI filter as it is AD and not WMI. 3) WMI Filter on Win32_NTDomain.ClientSiteName - this is a collection of attributes, which starts with the local computer, then domain and finally all trusted domains. When the WMI Filter is parsed the filter ONLY looks at the first ClientSiteName which is the local computer site and so always is false.
