No it means tea whit milk. So the question would be, what kind of tee do you prefer, plane or whit milk. and the sentens you provided is the answer.

Vaala/vaali is a useful word to know. It gives doodh the quality of an adjective. Doodhvaali chai = milky tea (tea with milk). Vaala is used a lot in Hindi conversation. Chaiwala is a seller of tea. Dhobiwala is a washerman. Delhiwala is a person from Delhi. So if you asked someone if they would like a cup of tea and they replied yes and added chiniwali it would mean tea with sugar or sugared tea. The ending will either be e, a or e depending on gender and plurality. I'm sure someone could write a whole book on its use! "Doodhwala" also means a milkman or one who sells milk! If the milkman happened to be a woman it would be Doodhwali.

Namaste,
-वाला(vaalaa),-वाली(vaalee),- वाले(vaale) - suffix. Go with noun, adverb and verb.
You don’t find suffix by itself.
The 3 examples below are from the lessions.
1. हमारे पास यहवाली अभाग्यवश सिर्फ़ छत्तीस माप में है ।
Humare paas yehvaali abhagyavach sirf chattis maap mein hai.
Unfortunately, we only have this one left, in size 36.
यहवाली yehvaali = this one.
2. मैं एक दूधवाली चाय लेना पसंद करूँगा , धन्यवाद ।
Main ek doodhvaali chai lena pasand karunga, dhanyavaad.
I’d like a cup of tea with milk, thanks.
दूधवाली - doodhvaali - milky – also could mean a milkwoman.
3. वे लम्बे बालोंवली मेरी चाचीजी है ।
Weh lambe baalonvaali meri chachiji hai.
The long-haired woman is my aunt.
Weh lambe baalonvaali- The long-haired one.
Here is another example of vaale:
सब कुछ ऊपरवाले के हाथ में है। Sab kuch uuparvaale ke hath me hai. Everything is in God’s hand(s).
Uuparvaale meaning ‘ the one up there’=God.
घर ghar house + suffix vaalaa or vaali
घरवाला – gharvaalaa - master or owner of a house.
घरवाली – gharvaali(ee)- wife.
Good luck in your learning Hindi!
Namaste.
