Nope. It will produce links as usual, but with the TITLE ATTRIBUTE
filled with either of title/subtitle:

<a href="foo/" title="More about foo!">Foo</a>
<a href="bar/" title="An introduction to bar...">Bar</a>

This will produce a tooltip in every visual brower I know about, and
will fill it with the output of whatever field you specify--the link
text will still be the page title.

If you want to do this instead, you're going to have to take this
basic approach (a bit long for me to write out completely):

NO {
  doNotShowLink = 1

  cObject = COA
  cObject {
    # Note that it'd probably be better to wrap the  COA in just
<li>|</li> and build the link
    # as a TEXT or HTML object and use .typolink to generate the link:

    dataWrap = <li><a href="index.php?id={field:uid}">|</a></li>

    5 = TEXT
    5 {
      # Properties for the <span> here; display it conditionally using '.if'
      # (http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/doc_core_tsref/if/)
      #
      # Note that there is probably no good reason to use a class on the  span
      # (i.e. since there is probably an id on the whole menu object
and the spans
      # can be targeted in css with #menuId li a span { /* Tooltip
properties */ })

      field:subtitle
      wrap = <span>|</span>
      if.isTrue.data = field:subtitle
    }

    10 = TEXT
    10 {
      # Properties for the link title here; probably something like:

      data = field:title
    }

  }
}

Not tested, and it's early so there may be errors, but something along
these lines will do it.
