Not really, there is a misunderstanding here. Although its name suggests it, srcpkgcache.bin is _not_ a cache for source packages but rather a cache for packages from remote sources, see apt-cache(8). To get rid of remnants for old deb-src entries in sources.list, remove /var/lib/apt/lists/*Sources* instead.
