No, it doesn't. The word Yahweh has never been used by Jews, it is Christian in origin. As the word Halleluyah is Hebrew, the best English translation is 'Praise God' or 'Praise HaShem'.

Where does the word hallelujah come from?
The word 'hallelujah' is most familiar in the context of the 'Hallelujah Chorus' from Handel's Messiah. 'Hallelujah' is a Hebrew word meaning "praise ye JAH (Jehovah)'. Hallelujah appears four times in the NIV and NASB (Revelation 19:1-6), and is translated 'alleluia' in the King James Version. In modern parlance, both words mean 'praise the Lord' or 'praise Jehovah,' phrases which appear over 50 times in the Old Testament and once in the New Testament. It is interesting to note, however, that none of the times where 'praise the Lord' or 'praise Jehovah' appears are they a translation of the Hebrew 'hallelujah.' What, then, is so special about the word 'hallelujah' that it is only used in Revelation 19? The scene in this passage opens in heaven where a great multitude has gathered before the throne in the immediate presence of God Himself, after the final overthrow of the enemies of the church and the triumph of the gospel. In such circumstances, it was fitting that all heaven should render praise and that a song of thanksgiving should be uttered in which all holy beings could unite. Reasons for this glorious outpouring of praise are God's righteous victory over His enemies (vv. 1-3), His sovereignty (vv. 4-6), and His eternal communion with His people (v. 7). The sound of the outpouring of praise and worship is so overwhelming that the apostle John can only describe it as the roar of rushing waters and loud peals of thunder.
