DB failover settings in .env file?

The docs talk about a database 'failover' parameter, which is defined as an array within the main DB connection settings.

Is there a way to define failovers in an .env file? If so, what would that syntax be?

Is it as simple as doing it like?
database.default.failover.hostname = myserver.com
