No, you are understanding it wrongly. CloudStack doesn't perform the DNS lookup, this is done by librados on the hypervisor. It will receive all Monitors from that DNS lookup and connect to one of them. As soon as it does it will obtain the monmap and know the full topology. Fully redundant and failover proof.
