Not quite, since you can have more than one IP on a network card or vice versa(bridging arrangements).

My major concerns are how to configure squid to receive http requests from one IP, and send http answers to another IP?
how to configure squid to listen on an IP is easy. See the http_port setting.
squid doesn't control and
can't control how
outgoing connections are routed, though. That's what the routing table is for. Whatever IP address you use as your gateway, is what
any outgoing internet traffic -- squid or otherwise -- is going to try to use to connect through.
Yes, you often see squid used in two-nic arrangements.
