Does that mean you can mass-produce queens by separating them from the hive and continuing to feed them the jelly?

Yes, people do Queen-farm by doing exactly that. Then they sell them for Re-Queening that many commercial beekeepers do to reduce the risk of queen loss after the first year (normally they live 2-4 years).
