The manual says

"In each case, the second argument may contain any of the
allowable items for a list of the appropriate type."

and I'd infer that for match_address this means an address list.
The description for those
(http://exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch10.html)
says:

"If a non-empty pattern that is not a regular expression or a lookup
does not contain an @ character, it is matched against the domain
part of the subject address."


So in summary, "yes".
