Not using a case expression. Remember that the case expression is used to define what value is returned in a statement. It cannot control logic flow which is what you are talking about here. Effectively you are trying to have the results of a stored procedure as a single value in a row. This doesn't make any sense from a logical point of view.
The following is one way this would work but from your short snippet I am not sure this is what you are after.
If @Field = 'value'
exec stored_proc1
else
exec stored_proc2
