IIS url rewrite role except some urls

I got this rule in URL rewrite that rewrites every request to the site using HTTP to HTTPS

<rule name="Force HTTPS" stopProcessing="true">
                    <match url="(.*)" />
                    <conditions>
                        <add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="off" ignoreCase="true" />
                    </conditions>
                    <action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}/{R:1}" appendQueryString="true" redirectType="Permanent" />
                </rule>

I need another rule or exception in this role to rewrite back or redirect specific urls to HTTP.

Is that possible?

You can add the exceptions for which you don't want to perform the redirect to HTTPS as extra conditions (not equal to that URL), like so:

<rule name="Force HTTPS" stopProcessing="true">
    <match url="(.*)" />
    <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
        <add input="{HTTPS}" pattern="off" ignoreCase="true" />
        <add input="{REQUEST_URI}" negate="true" pattern="^/noredirect/forthis/page\.aspx$" ignoreCase="true" />
        <add input="{REQUEST_URI}" negate="true" pattern="^/noredirect/forthis/page-as-well\.aspx$" ignoreCase="true" />
        <add input="{REQUEST_URI}" negate="true" pattern="^/noredirect/forthis/page-as-well-too\.aspx$" ignoreCase="true" />
    </conditions>
    <action type="Redirect" url="https://{HTTP_HOST}/{R:1}" appendQueryString="true" redirectType="Permanent" />
</rule>
