Yes; each SMTP transport can take an "interface" option to specify the local
bind address.

I can strongly recommend taking the time to read the Exim documentation
(http://exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/index.html) - comprehensive and
accurate. The documentation is one of the main reasons I like Exim :-)
