yes, but povray won't work directly with ASE on windows due to Linux 
oriented os.system calls in
https://trac.fysik.dtu.dk/projects/ase/browser/trunk/ase/io/pov.py 
(povray ... > /dev/null, etc.).
Instead you can create the pov/ini povray files with an ASE python 
script and then open the pov file with povray.

Another problem you may encounter is when using ase.lattice module.
For some reasons the 
https://trac.fysik.dtu.dk/projects/ase/browser/trunk/ase/lattice/spacegroup/spacegroup.dat 
is not copied
during the msi installation of ASE to 
C:\Python27\LIb\site-packages\ase\lattice\spacegroup.
You need to download this file manually.

Best regards,

Marcin
