Nooo...  Look at this page, in the paragraph about urgency:

http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/packaging-manual/ch-sourcepkg.html#s-dpkgchangelog

Closes would be a keyword, like urgency, and can be handled by the current
keyword=value system, just like urgency.  It should be something like

foo (1.0-2) unstable; urgency=low, closes=10002 11930 10109
