Yes, you can install dictionaries for TeXworks in ~/Library/TeXworks/dictionaries. You need to get the dictionaries in OpenOffice 2.0 format (not 3.0) and place the .aff and .dic files in this folder.

However, the dictionaries are not LaTeX-aware like those for Aspell (so you'll get lots and lots of input underlined in red) and there is no GUI for customizing them (activating recognition of LaTeX control sequences, etc.) as with CocoAspell.
