Will IRules direct to a down pool memebr ?

i have VS with 1 pool having 2 pool members , each pool members has a monitor . i have an IRule that have the following logic :

if client src-ip = X , direct to pool member 1 , else direct to the pool ( sothat LB can be achieved )

The question is : if the pool member 1 is down due to a monitor failure , will IRule continue to direct traffic to it causing this client src-ip to face issues ?

e.g.

when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
   if {[IP::addr [IP::client_addr] equals 172.28.19.0/24]}{
      if {[LB::status pool foo member 200.200.200.101 80] eq "up"}{
         pool foo member 200.200.200.101 80
      } else {
         pool foo
      }
   } else {
       do something else
   }
}
