If a DNS server redirects mysrv.domain.io to the IP 192.168.0.100, but there is a second server in the network, let's say 192.168.0.101, that also "reacts" to the Host-Header mysrv.domain.io, is it possible to redirect the user from the first server to the second server with the same domain without the DNS server "interfering" and redirecting it again to the first server?

Not at an IP/DNS level.

Only by setting up a one of the machines as a HTTP reverse proxy.

e.g. is host 1 (192.168.0.100) deals with http://mysrv.domain.io/ and host 2 (192.168.0.100) deals with http://myserv.domain.io/foo then you could configure host 1 to forward all traffic for the /foo path to host 2.

How you would do this depends on what you are using for your HTTP server on host 1, but things like nginx or apache can be configured to act in this way.
