No. You are trying to rewrite a header line. The 'S' flag says "apply
this rule to the arguments of incoming SMTP commands". You need flags
like f, r, etc. to say "apply this rule to the addresses in header
lines", and that's when Exim expects to see valid addresses.
There is no facility to say "apply this rule to the contents of a
header line", I'm afraid.

If the message came in via SMTP and you had the S flag set...
