Err, no.

There are typically two runs through the Routers.  One of them is a
"verify" run, then comes the delivery run.  This is why you can tag
individual Routers with "no_verify".

As long as your RCPT ACL includes a step which does
  verify = recipient
then there will be a verify run through the Routers.  If you've removed
this step from the RCPT ACL then I *strongly* advise putting it back, as
this is what keeps you from emitting backscatter.

So I'd have a Router along the lines of (untested):

user_blacklist:
  driver = redirect
  domains = +local_domains
  local_part_suffix = -*
  check_local_user
  verify_only
  allow_fail
  require_files = $home/.email_blacklist
  condition = ${lookup{$local_part_suffix}lsearch{$home/.email_blacklist} 
{yes}{no}}
  data = :fail: ${lookup{$local_part_suffix}lsearch{$home/.email_blacklist} \
                {${if def:value {$value}{address invalid}}}{address invalid}}

Note that the lookup result should be cached, so in reality the file is
only scanned once.
