Yes, Altium makes extensive use of Confluence.

I think this is where I got the idea for using Confluence + JIRA + etc...
for my company :-) in
first place.

I think it could save us a lot of time for design, manual maintenance,
etc... and In the worst case
(if we needed for just any reason a migration path), we could export to
.odt/.doc/.pdf, and keep doing
it on the source repository.
