No. Because you are not from scheduled area/notified area for the purpose. For getting exemption from income-tax u/s 10(26) one has to be resident(domiciled) of scheduled area and earning from it.

As per the Hon'ble Guahati High Court Full bench's order dated 10-12-2009, all ST members are exempted from paying income tax under section 10(26) of income tax act when ST member is residing in scheduled/notified areas.
