Certainly. If it has a midi out, then it will send midi signals out based on your key presses and knob twiddlings, which you will be able to use in Ableton to control whatever softsynths or samplers you wish to have your midi signals trigger.
Although you should probably make sure that your midi to usb is an actual converter, although I don't think it comes any other way that I'm aware of.

As an aside, your post makes me wonder when you say "write midi music" and "produce it". What is it that you're trying to ultimately accomplish with midi, if you don't mind me asking?
