No. The ACL general-purpose condition called "condition" takes a string
argument and converts it, using *its* set of rules, into a conditional
value for the ACL.

But you are dealing with an expansion condition, a different thing,
which is not a string. It is a separate concept. You were trying
to use a string (derived from an expansion, a lookup - but that isn't
really important here).
You could convert that string into an expansion condition, by using
either "bool" or "eq". Bool would be simpler.

re-laying out that...

${if or {\
         {eq \
            {${lookup{$local_part@$domain}lsearch{/etc/dovecot/aliases}{yes}} \
                                                                          ^^^^  missing a } here
            {yes}\
         } \
        } \


                      {eq{${lookup{$local_part@$domain}lsearch{/etc/dovecot/users}{yes}}{yes}}} \
                     } {yes}}

I like to use a bracket-matching-capable editor when developing
complex conditions.
