Hi Brett
You can indeed, just use the Processing toolbox, just type Translate 
into the search box and select the Translate Tool under GDAL.
The values you specified as transparent, can be specified under the 
Nodata Value
You can also do this as part of a batch if you have a number of files, 
you wish to do this for.

Hope this helps,

Richard.
