Correct, LFSCK will repair the OST object ownership, but does not *directly* repair quota files. That said, if an object is owned by the wrong owner for some reason, changing the ownership _should_ transfer the quota usage properly to the new owner, so in that regard the quota usage should be indirectly repaired by an LFSCK run.
