I don't think so...
On the contrary, it will shut down unneeded hosts indeed. But you have
to configure the fields Liran mentioned:
Edit the cluster, select scheduling policy tab and add two parameters
to your Power saving policy. One (EnableAutomaticHostPowerManagement)
enables the power cycling mechanism and the second one
(HostsInReserve) controls how many empty hosts are allowed to stay up.
When the not enough hosts are empty anymore a new one will be started.

But you can set a script to change the performance profile of tuned
daemon to adjust based on number of VMs.
For example, if no VMs are running - tuned's power saving profile is enabled, while
if a VM is powered on (or migrated) - the script can put a high performance peofile is
enabled.
