No. "relay_to_domains" is a named list of domains (an array if you will).
You can use this list of domains in configuration options elsewhere in the
config file, but the syntax you give above does not configure any actual
routing in itself.
To set up the routing you are after, you probably need a manualroute
router, with "domains" and "route_list" set to +relay_to_domains, as you
are defining above. Whether it works exactly like that depends on how the
"route_list" option is expanded.
Also note that the named list "relay_to_domains" is used in the default
configuration for different slightly purposes to what you are using it for
- make sure you don't leave something in the config that you don't
actually want.
There is a very good manual at
www.exim.org, it should tell you all you
need: in particular the introductory sections decribing exim's methodology
should help you a lot.
