It'll defintely work as an expansion tank, but the coolant inside isn't an "active" part of the circuit.

Air-to-water tanks aren't intended for expansion, they're designed to introduce a larger thermal mass to the system with which to absorb the heat.

You'll never notice the difference with most driving, but if you go WOT for a long period of time, you'll see the temperature rise more quickly than is ideal.
