No. rcpthosts is just a funny way to spell "these hosts are really
me". It's the logical concatenation of /var/qmail/locals and
/var/qmail/virtualdomains, unless you do something uncommon with MX
records.
Tcpserver says "you are a client that I trust and so will allow you to
send mail through me (in one end and out the other) to the internet at
large."
You need to use tcpserver to allow relaying.
