Laurence,

        Sort of.  Right now PyMOL doesn't fully support translations of
individual objects by independent matrices, but you can translate their
representations by a matrix for animation purposes using "translate" and
"rotate" with the object argument.   

        However, you can cleanly transform the atoms in an object.  See

print cmd.transform_selection.__doc__

for details on the matrix used for that.

        The object matrix system is just about due for an overhaul -- we
need more flexibility than is currently provided...

Cheers,
Warren
