Yes. From the manual:

  Never send more than the specified number of bytes in a given 
  accounting period, or receive more than that number in the period. For 
  example, with AccountingMax set to 1 GB, a server could send 900 MB 
  and receive 800 MB and continue running. 

In other words, it'll keep running until either rx or tx has reached 10 
GB. It'll hibernate when upstream or downstream has reached the limit 
you have specified.
