Scalr creates DNS records for your DB roles as follows: int-<db role
name>.<domain>.com or ext-<db role name>.domain.com for internal and
external ip addresses respectively.  These hostnames can even be resolved
from your own desktop machine (which bothers me but that is another story).
Because they can be resolved from just about anywhere, any instance that you
create will also be able to connect to them.

Short answer: No, nothing should be required to connect to them.
