The short answer is yes.
The longer answer is no. The tests are designed so that the average score is always supposed to be 100. However, people have been scoring better and better over time, so maintain the 100 average they have (basically) made it harder to score well on the tests. This keeps the average score right at 100.
This means that an IQ of 100 today means a person is more intelligent than someone who scored an IQ of 100 20 years ago.

Can you convert MAT scores to IQ scores?
If you are able to determine the IQ of a cross section of people (through an IQ test) who have taken the MAT, you can develop a cross relation between MAT scores and IQ. Assuming that the relationship is almost linear (or an invert - if you consider people like me, who don't do well in tests!) you can predict the IQ of people on the basis of their MAT scores. Though the results may not be as accurate as a discrete IQ test, the indicators should be sufficient to determine probable IQ. Hope this helps
