We don't really have any mechanism for posting specific topics to specific relays. However, a relay operator could set up their own relay that aggregated notes about a specific topic, and then anyone wanting to go peruse that relay specifically could do so with one of the clients that allows you to see relay-based feeds.
Most folks wanting to post about a specific topic just use appropriate hashtags, so users can find those notes regardless of the relay they are posted to.
I think topic-based communities are a great reason to run a relay, though.
hodlbod (nprofile…8x3z) is the guy really putting work into this usecase with his Flotilla client.
