Not *quite* yet. The URL you've noticed is forward planning -- translations of the documentation have always been on the nice-to-have list, so we've planned for future expansion. At the moment, however, there is only the english translation, and we don't really have the facilities to handle alternate languages. There are a bunch of modifications that we want to make to docs.djangoproject.com, and providing support for other languages is part of those improvements. Some recent additions to Sphinx should make it much easier to manage this process. If you want to help out set up the infrastructure to make this happen, there was a recent call for volunteers on the Django Software Foundation's members and volunteers list [1]; if you jump on that list now, it's not too late to register your interest in helping out (ok.. the deadline has passed, but we're not going to pass up any offer of volunteer help).
