$GENERATE, as someone else pointed out, solves that problem for you?

No. A /64 has 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 addresses.  Even if you
had machines that supported zettabytes of data the zone would never
load in human lifetimes.

Can you wildcard it? 

No point.  address -> name -> address doesn't work with wildcards.
