By "unqualified hosts", do you really mean unqualified *hosts* in
addresses (e.g. <user@host> as opposed to <user@???>), or
do you mean unqualified *addresses* (just <user>).

Sounds like you mean unqualified addresses, in which case:

No, spec.txt seems pretty clear on that.
From section 1.8 (Limitations):
. Exim insists that every address it handles has a domain attached. For
incoming local messages, domainless addresses are automatically qualified
with a configured domain value. Configuration options specify from which
remote systems unqualified addresses are acceptable. These are then
qualified on arrival.
