you did not provide the IP ranges.

yes...

still no IP ranges.

You still did not configure anything.

"nameserver 1.2.3.4" should be in resolv.conf and:

server=/a.com/10.20.30.40

in the dnsmasq.conf.

No, this apparently will not work properly.

The configuration above will provide every request to 1.2.3.4 and requests
for "a.com" to 10.20.30.40

all reverse requests will thus be forwarded to 1.2.3.4
