Yes.

You don't have to explicitly set internal_networks if it's the same
as trusted_networks. internal_networks is supposed to be all of your
MX hosts. trusted_networks may contain more than your MX hosts,
if there are other hosts that you trust not to forge headers
(eg: other mailservers you control, or that regularly forward
mail to you, operated by trusted third parties).
Does that make it clear?
