Yes, that can work, although for these simple cases, it might be more
straightforward to use the git -c option to set the config variable
just for the duration of the one git command. For instance:

test_expect_success 'hide namespaced refs with transfer.hideRefs' '
    (
        cd pushee &&
        GIT_NAMESPACE=namespace \
            git -c transfer.hideRefs=refs/tags \
            ls-remote "ext::git %s ." >actual &&
        printf "$commit1\trefs/heads/master\n" >expected &&
        test_cmp expected actual &&
    )
'

In fact, these test are so simple, that you don't really need the 'cd'
at all. You could just use -C (along with -c):

test_expect_success 'hide namespaced refs with transfer.hideRefs' '
    GIT_NAMESPACE=namespace \
        git -C pushee -c transfer.hideRefs=refs/tags \
        ls-remote "ext::git %s ." >actual &&
    printf "$commit1\trefs/heads/master\n" >expected &&
    test_cmp expected actual &&
'
