you could have simply tried,
and posted back with what you found out.
better yet, you could have read the drbd.conf man page,
which states

  on <host-name>
	Carries the necessary configuration parameters for a DRBD device
	of the enclosing resource.  <host-name> is mandatory and must
	match the  linux  hostname  (uname -n) of one of the nodes.

 :)

I'd personally avoid partially quallified "hostnames".
either have them fully qualified, or use node names only.
