No, not with sendmail. You need to manually create these aliases from
within the sendmail aliases file. This is *usually* /etc/aliases. Check
your specific configuration to be sure. You may also need to rebuild the
alias database once you edit this file. With sendmail you can issue the
`newaliases` command.
