I'm not sure if this means what I think this means, but does this mean that we can used Direct3D 9 on WINE now with no need to translate it to something else first?

I believe so too, from the repo: > Runs Direct3D 9 applications on Windows or Linux (/w Wine) over Vulkan.

I think it does. There is another project called Gallium Nine, too. Never got it to work on my system though. The first paragraph in VK9's FAQ actually compares the two: https://github.com/disks86/VK9/wiki/F.A.Q https://github.com/disks86/VK9/wiki/F.A.Q.

Well, this is translating it to something else, no? Just Vulkan is more low-level than Direct3D.

It would translate D3D9 to Vulkan like Wine currently translates D3D9 to OpenGL. It's different from Gallium Nine.
