The short answer
Can Telegram translate a live call?
Telegram documents translation for chat messages, including real-time chat translation for Premium users. Its official translation materials do not describe live speech translation inside voice or video calls.
Loquora handles the call audio separately. Its desktop app appears as a virtual microphone, translates each phrase, and sends the translated voice into Telegram. The person you call does not need Loquora.
