Yes, but only if you want your site at http://www.example.com/bbpress – if you want it at http://www.example.com, then just take everything from inside the bbpress folder on your desktop, and upload those files (and sub-folders) no bbpress folder to hold everything. Then, access http://www.example.com and your bbPress installer should come up, assuming index.php is one of the files the web server looks for the server (normally it is, so you should be OK there.)
