I have to migrate a Joomla! 1.0.x site with about 11000 articles (3800 x 3 languages).
If I buy the Admin Tools Professional, can I create multiple rewrites uploading a list of URLs like /content/view/3796/52/lang,en
to the new URLs like
index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=52&Itemid=3796&lang=en ?

If not allowed in the user interface, can be easily added to the MySQL table?

Yes, you can do that, with three different ways:

1. Manually enter each redirection. This is very time consuming and not recommended.
2. Create a CSV file and import it directly in the database using phpMyAdmin. This is how I do it, but it's a bit tricky until you get the CSV in a format phpMyAdmin likes. The table structure itself is straightforward, it's the CSV import which is a bit tricky.
3. Use FreakedOut.de's Content Uploader Pro to directly import URL redirection lists from Excel files. These guys have done such an excellent job that I decided to not try to create that feature myself. I simply can't make it any smoother or intuitive than they already have :)

Well, I’ll try to download the table as CSV with phpMyAdmin and try to get a similar file.
But later: I’m going to the subscription page now ;)
