May I use "if else" in the CicleCI v2.0 workflows, not in the job?

Hi,
I have a CircleCI v2.0 workflows and I also use the ‘approve’ type in my workflow.
I want to ignore the “approve” workflow when matching the specified condition.
My circle.yml like below:

defaults: &defaults
  working_directory: ~/ansible_develop
  machine:
    services:
      - docker

version: 2
jobs:
  notification:
    <<: *defaults
    steps:
      - checkout
      - run:
          name: Install dependencies
          command: |
            pip install --upgrade pip
            pip install ansible
      - run:
          name: Sent the deployed workflow starting email notification
          command: |
            sh [doing a script]
  peer-review:
    <<: *defaults
    steps:
      - checkout
      - run:
          name: Install dependencies
          command: |
            pip install --upgrade pip
            pip install ansible
      - run:
          name: Check deploy content
          command: |
            sh [doing a script]
  deploy:
    <<: *defaults
    steps:
      - checkout
      - run:
          name: Add git identify
          command: |
            if [ "${CIRCLE_BRANCH}" == "master" ];
            then
              echo "The master branch deploy needs be approved"
            else
              git config --global user.email "circleci@workflows.jobs"
              git config --global user.name "circleci"
            fi
      - run:
          name: Install dependencies
          command: |
            if [ "${CIRCLE_BRANCH}" == "master" ];
            then
              echo "The master branch deploy needs be approved"
            else
              sudo apt-get update -y && sudo apt-get -y install pssh
              pip install --upgrade pip
              pip install ansible
            fi
      - run:
          name: Major deploy tasks
          command: |
            if [ "${CIRCLE_BRANCH}" == "master" ];
            then
              echo "The master branch deploy needs be approved"
            else
              sh [doing the deploy script]
            fi
      - run:
          name: If failed
          command: |
            sh $PWD/mail_sent.sh
            cd /tmp && ansible-playbook job-fail.yml
          when: on_fail
workflows:
  version: 2
Staging-CICD-workflows:
    jobs:
      - notification:
          filters:
            branches:
              ignore: master
      - peer-review:
          type: approval
          filters:
            branches:
              only: staging
      - deploy:
          requires:
            - peer-review

My request like(I am using colloquialism to express):
(In the Job) if script return 1 then ignore peer-review and directly going to the deploy job.
But, I tried its always “hold” on peer-review stage.
Could accomplish my requirement?
Thank you

This is not possible at the moment. There’s a feature request that you can vote & comment on though: https://circleci.com/ideas/?idea=CCI-I-605

And, I have use the API to be a control to meet my needs.
Thank you for your helping.
