Yes; The Document Foundation is the organisation behind LibreOffice, and 
that's the archive of old versions. Best to check if unsure though ;o)

You only need to download the version for your system, which is probably:
  win/x86/LibO_3.6.6.2_Win_x86_install_multi.msi
and optionally the "helppack" in whatever language you prefer:
  win/x86/LibO_3.6.6.2_Win_x86_helppack_XXXX.msi

For Windows, you only need to look under the win/ folder; the others are 
for other types of systems:
  box/      - (I'm not sure what this one is - looks like DVD images)
  deb/      - Debian Linux
  mac/      - Apple Mac
  portable/ - "Portable" version which can run from a USB stick etc.
              without being installed (empty in this case...)
  rpm/      - RMP-based Linux (RedHat etc.)
  src/      - Source code
  win/      - Windows
And under each of those are downloads for various CPU architectures 
(32-bit, 64-bit, PPC, etc.), and languages.
