Yes. By "edit" I mean "combine the chunks and cut them into sessions".

Jan pointed out that youtube2mediawiki.py doesn't actually "download" the
video, so I think we're fine with the provisions of licensor's permission
in the sentence below.

Commons is ultra-conservative with copyright, but doesn't really care about
any other terms and conditions imposed by anyone else. So I think it's fine
to transfer the videos from YouTube to Commons - no copyright is violated
and the ambiguity in the YouTube TOS works in our favour.
