It certainly claims to. However, if so, it’s really well hidden.

Just drop your ldraw models into your “My Documents/LEGO Creations/Models” directory and then open LDD and click on the model in the open dialog (it will have a yellow brick as an icon).

To export them append .ldr to the model when saving the model in LDD.

Note that it only works with offical ldraw parts at the moment and will drop bricks it doesn’t know about during the conversion so always keep a backup in the original format.

Hope that helps,

Having tried this with a random MOC I had it works a treat. One thing to watch out for tho is that some parts seem to have a different origin in LDD to Ldraw and so will appear out of position. (the particular part I found this on was the 30357 Plate 3 x 3 Corner Round)
