Yes, I am sure - translatewiki.net also uses it for the purpose of translating wiki pages.
Counter question: have you checked out the sample URL I put in my post? Please do so if you have not yet.
A production setup can be found at http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Translating:How_to_start

The Translate extension seems to be made for translating the interfaces of software projects. It doesn't seem to be set up to translate documents or wiki content.
