Kinda but not quite. The fluid buffer isn’t necessary and it’s just one pipe going up and down. The idea of a water tower is to pressurize all your pipes with just one headlift pipe. Let’s say you need 1800 cubic meters of water to go up 40m. How many mk 2 pumps do you need? Three? Actually you need just one. You take one pipe, add the pump to it and bring it up to 40m, then bring it back down. That pipe is your “water tower”. You then connect it to the three pipes you want going up to your factory and all those pipes will move water up to the water tower height. The best part is that you can connect however many additional pipes to that water tower and they all will flow up to the same height without any additional pumps.
Whenever I need headlift on a lot of pipes of the same fluid I build a “water tower”. Built properly it should cover all your headlift needs.
By “water tower” are you just directing the input into a couple water tanks placed higher than wherever the water needs to go?

Here’s a quick 2min video explaining the concept.
