Yes and no. For the gadget XML itself, the answer is no; the XML is cached by Google and must be on a publicly-accessible web server, using a global URL. For type="url" gadgets, the sub-answer is yes: the associated href can indeed be a local URL. For type="html" gadgets, where the content is embedded in the gadget XML itself, obviously this content will be cached and served by Google along with the rest of the gadget spec. However, external resources referenced by the gadget can be served from localhost; for example, it would be fine for your content to include a tag like <script src="http://localhost/my_script.js"></script>. However, as with all external resources, you will need to be careful with timing in this case.
