Yes, it does. For instance, in this example
http://simile.mit.edu/exhibit/examples/presidents/presidents.html
click on the "Copy All" button and choose your favorite format (I think
there's some bug in the exporter, but the idea is there).
You can also point Babel to (most) Exhibit-embedding pages to get RDF
out of them. This doesn't work if the pages use Javascript to initialize
Exhibit.

Along the same line, you can narrow down the items being rendered in
Exhibit using the facets and then export the data for only those items.
