I thought the working assumption of this thread was that the nameserver
in question was authoritative for the root zone. If so, there would be
no root hints. Other than that small correction, yes, the same
delegation records which are required for forwarding, would, as it
happens, be used to the resolve the query in a forward-first failover
scenario, just as if no forwarding had been defined in the first place.
