No. Many nodes route their exit traffic out some address other
than their OR IP, knowingly or not, and still retain the exit flag.

Well, plaintext wouldn't be visible if you buried it in a VPN to
some remote gateway, but that's about it.
It also makes it harder for censors to block Tor users of the exits
because the exit IP often won't show up in various RBL/DNS lists
populated via the consensus alone.
