Sure, you can do that. See the greylist.conf(5) man page:


SENDMAIL MACROS
       Any sendmail macro can be used as a clause in the access list. You need
       to define a (macro, value) pair using the sm_macro keyword before using
       it.  Here is an example that uses the {client_resolve} macro to apply a
       larger greylisting delay to hosts that have a bogus reverse DNS:

                sm_macro "maybe_forged" "{client_resolve}" "FORGED"

                acl greylist sm_macro "maybe_forged" delay 1h
                acl greylist default 15m

       A  regular  expression can be used as the macro value.  It must be sur-
       rounded with slashes and not by quotes.  The special  value  unset  can
       also be used to match an unset macro:

                sm_macro "not_foo" "{foo}" unset

       Note  that  any  Sendmail  macro  that  is  not exported using the Mil-
       ter.macros.envrcpt setting of sendmail.cf will be seen  as  unset  from
       milter-greylist.
