No need for both requirements. Just use never_direct to forbid DNS being used for that traffic. > cache_peer 11.12.12.12 parent 20006 0 no-query default name=proxy8000 > cache_peer_access proxy8000 allow port_8000_acl > cache_peer_access proxy8000 deny all > > But I want to modify it so I can tell it which local interface to use > based on the incoming port.

Squid is HTTP layer where you can, at most, request from the OS that it assign a given IP address to the outgoing traffic. > > tcp_outgoing_address 172.16.11.106 # <-- that's my local ip > > Does tcp_outgoing_address have the same ability as cache_peer in my case? Neither directive has the ability you are requesting. * cache_peer determines the dst-IP for the outgoing TCP connections. If the specific server is not available the TCP connection will fail (because you have never_direct). * tcp_outgoing_ip requests a specific src-IP for the outgoing TCP connections. If that IP is not already assigned to the machine it is invalid and connection will be rejected. The OS routing setup decides; a) whether the src-IP is valid, and b) whether the dst-IP is routable, and c) which NIC the packets with those values goes out.
