No they don't. They tell Squid how it should reconstruct the requested
URL from the webserver request received.

How Squid then forwards the request is defined by always/never_direct
(and it's relatives), cache_peer and cache_peer_access.

For requests where Squid goes direct without using cache_peer DNS
and/or /etc/hosts is consulted.
