Yes, article titles too. MLA does not make a distinction between different types of titles, whether they come from a Web site, a dissertation, or an APA journal.
Section 3.6.1 of the MLA Handbook (7th ed.) states that you should not "reproduce any unusual typographic characteristics, such as special capitalization or lowercasing of all letters." The Word unusual here refers to any style that is not MLA.
Two of the examples that MLA then provides are of specially formatted titles that must be modified. The second is similar to APA:
So no matter in what type of publication you find a title, you must re-capitalize or re-format it in order to conform to MLA's 3.6.1 Capitalization and Punctuation standards.
