Squid will not query any peers on content where "always_direct" results in
"allow".
If not, does this behaviour change when using NetDB?
No.
To do what you ask you should set up the peers as siblings of each other
(without using the allow-miss option). Siblings are only used if they have
a fresh copy of content and the first Squid goes direct if not.
