Yes, a pendulum will work in outer space because it relies on gravity to swing back and forth. However, the lack of air resistance in space may cause the pendulum to swing for a longer period of time compared to on Earth.

Why doesn't a pendulum keep swinging forever?

Most pendulums are operated by a spring, when the spring looses its tention it can no longer keep the pendulum swinging. Others may work on a different system but the system in not perpetual and will loose its ability to keep the pendulum swinging. As a point of interest you canot use a pendulum in space.
