You can use
0.centos.pool.ntp.org 1.centos.pool.ntp.org
or X.pool.ntp.org
where X from 0 to 3
You can check http://www.pool.ntp.org/en/use.html

And you may want to consider adding "iburst" to your server(s). It is recommended, whereas "burst" is frowned upon and "could get you blacklisted".
If you are behind a firewall, remember that the response comes back on UDP 123, same as it went out on.

If that's an actual host, yes. You refer to NTP time sources via domain name or IP address. If you or someone else is running a NTP server on that host, then yes.
But most importantly make sure you're using NTP servers that you have permission to utilize or ones that are open to the public (including public NTP pools).
