Certainly, I thought you were trying that and it was failing.
It's a "zone transfer" so yes, you have to create the Zone internally
on your DNS server with the SAME NAME and give it a "master"
address that points to the ISP which you wish to "source" that
zone.
You can also test this by using nslookup (just hit enter after the
command name and use the "shell") and do a "list" command on
that zone.
Point yourself at the ISP server (server command, type "help" for
help.)
If you aren't authorized the "list" will fail.
