Nope, you'd have to prefix each address with "whitelist_from" and put it
into your user_prefs, or a .cf file in /etc/mail/spamassassin.

And quite frankly, an email address alone is a very poor, and commonly
forged, basis for whitelisting. Generally whitelist_from_rcvd or
whitelist_from_spf are better options, and the email-address-only
whitelist_from is considered a method of last resort only.
