The translation of the admin part and the front end of Drupal are not
separated. Drupal by its nature handles translation on a text by text
basis. If the text "Save" needs translation, regardless of where it
shows up, it will be displayed translated, if a translation is
available in the given language. Admin or front end alike. The
localization update module downloads and manages translations from
localize.drupal.org, and keeps track of your own modifications.

That is the most used possibility, yes.

Text form buttons use the same text translation features, they are not
at all special.
