All of the Macbooks released since 2009 meet the minimum specs for Traktor, but I'd at least look at upgrading the RAM. OWC (macsales.com) is a good place to look if you don't know exactly what you need, and their install videos make things as easy as they can be.
So, yeah, the hardware will run it. I wouldn't expect sub-10ms latency, but you won't need that unless you're using vinyl control.
The question in my mind is whether or not you can update that computer to OS X 10.8, which is required. Unfortunately, that information isn't as easy to find.
ETA: wikipedia to the rescue. A long as a macbook is 2009 or newer, it can run 10.8. But, I don't think it'll run anything newer than that.
So...I wouldn't buy it unless you're getting it for pretty cheap....like....around $200 cheap.
