You could do that; and rather than hardcoding an IP address, I would do
the following:

      deny message   = You claim to be me?  Go away!
           condition = ${if eq {$sender_helo_name}{$interface_address} \
                            {true}{false}}



But frankly, _any_ IP address in a HELO/EHLO greeting is invalid, so
long as it is not an IP literal enclosed within square brackets:
      EHLO [192.168.1.2]



Thus, I would (and do):

      deny message   = You greeted me with an IP address.  I want your
name.
           condition = ${if isip {$sender_helo_name}{true}{false}}
