Sorry, that won't work.  :(

Class matching is unfortunately done in a stage of processing
prior to host record lookups (when the known bit is conditionally
set if a host record is found).

Can you describe more abstractly the input/output or consequence
you are trying for?  I am going to guess that you want the class
record to carry some information for the group of host records?

In this case, you can simply use a group {} statement surrounding
the host records so that they all inherit the same configuration
value;

  group {
    option domain-name "eng.example.com";
    option domain-search "example.com", "eng.example.com";

    host a {
      hardware ethernet 00:1e:69:a9:c6:05;
      fixed-address 10.0.5.250;
    }
    host b ...
  }
