Kind of.  Mame supports the NSS (Nintendo Super System) games, which actually just got a big boost in emulation recently.  Only a few games are supported for this platform, however.

Mess, on the other hand (Mame's Janus twin) DOES support SNES games.  And with the sound emulation worked on, is quite a good emulator now.

No.  Mame is the "Multiple ARCADE Machine Emulator".  MESS is the Multiple Emulator Super System.  And there are other SNES emulators out there (like zSNES).
