No! you cannot use transition only for certain value of transform like scale(2).
One possible solution would be as follows: (sorry, you have to use additional html)
HTML
<div class="scale">
<div class="translate">
Hello World
</div>
</div>
CSS
div.scale:hover {
transform: scale(2);
transition: transform 0.25s;
}
div.scale:hover div.translate {
transform: translate(100px,200px);
}
