I have an if clause
if expression
do-something
end
I would use the value return by
expression
into the if clause. Does it exist a way to do this?

suppose that I have an expression like
setdiff(1:5, [2 3])
and I have to use this expression inside the if clause

I assume you mean something like, in C/C++ style
if (++i == some_value){
//do something with the new value of i
}
Then, no, I don't think you can do that.
But you can always do
your_val = expression
if your_val == something %some condition
%some operation on your_val
end
