No,  It is porbably best to enter the linux directory and do 
$ make ARCH=<arch> xconfig

Once you have done that, you can go back to the buildroot top directory and do 

$ make saveconfig
The result will be stored in "local"

Check if you are adding real time patches (defined in the kernel headers section of menuconfig)
