YES!!! MSR designed it to shine above 12,000 feet. It doesn't require much pressure to operate well, so it also works well in cold weather. check out http://www.msrgear.com/stoves/reactor.asp and click on the link on the right side that says, "more on the reactor stove's revolutionary technology"
Tweak: This is NOT A MOUNTAINEERING STOVE. If by altitude you mean high or very high altitude(from 12,000 feet up) or are planning to use it in severe cold conditions(-20F and below) I'd rather stick to a liquid fuel stove, fuel itself behaves a lot better on such conditions than isobutane canisters, no pressure or temperature problems. Personally I use an MSR Whisperlite, simple, tough and HOT.
You can find some examples on the review "NO GO IN SNOW!!" down below.
