The Alpine Fault is a geological right-lateral strike-slip fault. It forms a transform boundary, so yes.
The most studied transform fault in the world is the San Andreas Fault.

YES. A Strike-slip fault is usually a transform boundary.

Rocks can form rift valleys and mountains.
The San Andreas fault in California is a major transform boundary or fault, as is New Zealand's Alpine fault and North America's Queen Charlotte fault.
The San Andreas fault in California is a major transform boundary or fault, as is New Zealand's Alpine fault and North America's Queen Charlotte fault.
Examples of transform boundaries include the San Andreas Fault in California, the Alpine Fault in New Zealand, and the Dead Sea Transform in the Middle East. At these boundaries, tectonic plates slide past each other horizontally, creating strike-slip faults.

The alpine fault is located in New Zeland. There have been no major earthquakes on the main portion of it. The fault mover 30mm a year!
A transform fault is a general term to describe a plate boundary where the lithosphere is not destroyed or created. A transverse fault is a type of transform fault also known as a strike-slip fault.
the Hayward fault is a "transform" fault. :)
