In short - yes, it's possible and recommended (it helps keeping order in the translations). Simply:

1. Execute manage.py makemessages in the root directory of your Django app to create .po/.mo files for that particular app.
2. Store the translation files will be in stored in $APPPATH/locale/<language>/LC_MESSAGES/django.(po|mo) directory (so inside the app directory).
