Yes, they may be kept as pets in Australia.

Please scroll down to "Table 6.6 Native mammal species that may be kept"

It is illegal to keep native Australian animals as pets. The wallaby is a marsupial closely related to the possum and the koala. They are native to Australia but can also be found in New Zealand. It would be a safe assumption that it is illegal in Australia to keep a Wallaby as a pet.
