given than

accept conditionA
        endpass
        conditionB



is equivalent to:

deny conditionA
      !conditionB


accept conditionA
        conditionB


in either order

and that you would need

conditionB =
           verify = recipient
           insert into db


but that when verify is false there is no need to do the lookup to
establish if conditionB is false, and it is exactly when verify is
false that you would need to insert in the database

I would say that you cannot do this with the accept...endpass alone.

Instead I would split this as depicted above:

deny domains = +local_domains
      !verify = recipient
      insert into db



accept domains = +local_domains
      verify = recipient



in the order that you find more convenient (that is, iff you reject
more than accept put the deny before)

or equivalently, but more cleanly, precede the accept...endpass with

warn domains = +local_domains
      !verify = recipient
      insert into db
