Yes, it works. 
Quite a few members on here have tried it; I haven't personally but I've trained my bunnies to go back indoors after free range time using similar methods.
There is a very informative thread on the Rabbit Awareness Week site about clicker training, there are also some links in the Bonding - Old Useful Topics sticky here (towards the bottom of the page).

With food! :lol::lol:
It took a few weeks probably all in all. I started by shaking the bag of pellets every time they got fed while inside their kennel, so they associated the sound with the reward. Then I moved on to shaking the bag while they were in the garden, rewarding them with a pellet if they came up to me, gradually leading them back in to the kennel & I would finish up by scattering some pellets in their run.
Now all I do is shake the bag and they run back in to the kennel & sit waiting to be fed.
Or, if they've been out a while they take themselves back in and then stare at me until I feed them. :lol::lol::lol:
