Im not sure why you even have to ask.
You want to move, even have a timeframe set.
Of course you should tell the recruiters.
By letting them know, they'll concentrate on finding a way to accomodate your wish without bothering you with offers you'll deny anyways.
Mind you, some may have issues with integrating you into a team and moving you after merely a year or so.

Context - Happily employed for the last 5yrs, love my current company - Want to move to a new location to be closer to wife's family - Current company has no presence in the area, pure remote position is not something that would make sense given my desired career path
Considerations - Compensation at current company is structured such that leaving before June would be very costly - Current lease expires at the end of Feb 2020 - desired move date is March 2020
Question As I talk to recruiters for prospective companies (not general recruiters, these people work for the companies in question directly) (all of whom have a presence in the desired metro area) should I mention my desire to first work in my current area and then move to this new area?
Thanks
