Yes - only alphanumeric, dot, dash, and underscore are permitted:
Hostgroup Entries
Hostgroup entries begin with the keyword hostgroup, and are followed by
a hostgroup tag and one or more hostnames or IP addresses, separated by
whitespace. The hostgroup tag must be composed of alphanumeric charac-
ters, a dash ("-"), a period ("."), or an underscore ("_"). Non-blank
lines following the first hostgroup line are interpreted as more host-
names. The hostgroup definition ends with a blank line. For example:
hostgroup servers nameserver smtpserver nntpserver
nfsserver httpserver smbserver
hostgroup router_group cisco7000 agsplus
