Ayatollah Khamenei and Ayatollah Sistani (may God protect them):
Yes, this formulation is valid, and the vow is established by it. The subject of the vow is also correct, and there is no objection to vowing to perform an action and dedicating it to the infallibles, peace be upon them.
May you be successful in all good.
