Yes, you do.
Quoting from the man page:
|/etc/exim4/hubbed_hosts
| is an optional file containing a list of route_data records which can
| be used to override or augment MX information from the DNS. This is
| particularly useful for mail hubs which are highest-priority MX for a
| domain in the DNS but are not final destination of the messages, pass-
| ing them on to a host which is not publicly reachable, or to temporar-
| ily fix mail routing in case of broken DNS setups.
|
| The file should contain key-value pairs of domain pattern and route
| data of the form
|
| domain: host-list options
| dict.ref.example: mail-1.ref.example:mail-2.ref.example
| foo.example: internal.mail.example.com
| bar.example: 192.168.183.3
|
| which will cause mail for foo.example to be sent to the host inter-
| nal.mail.example (IP address derived from A record only), and mailto
| bar.example to be sent to 192.168.183.3.
|
| See spec.txt chapter 20.3 through 20.7 for a more detailed explanation
| of host list format and available options.
If I understand your problem right, this is exactly what you need. And
it is already there.
