I need to install specific rpm file which I'm pulling from git and it looks like this "zabbix-agent2-5.2.4-1.el7.x86_64.rpm"

This is state file which I'm using:

install_pkg:
  pkg.installed:
    - sources:
      - zabbix_agen2: salt://some/path/zabbix-agent2-5.2.4-1.el7.x86_64.rpm

The question is, is there any option to specify dynamic file name?

Something like salt://some/path/zabbix-agent2*.rpm

Because in this moment I have to rename file in source directory for something like zabbix-agent2.rpm but I'd like to have that version in it's name.

The sources parameter takes an absolute filename, and doesn't consider wildcards. This is where pillar can be used to dynamically supply the version (at runtime).

For example:

install_pkg:
  pkg.installed:
    - sources:
      - zabbix_agen2: salt://some/path/zabbix-agent{{ pillar['zabbix_version'] }}.el7.x86_64.rpm

Pillar values can be supplied from an SLS file in the pillar, or it can be passed when running the state file, like:

salt myminion state.apply mypkg pillar='{"zabbix_version": "2-5.2.4-1"}'

Here we run the mypkg state on myminion by supplying the version of the package that we would like to install.
