I have signed up for TypeKit subscription and have added and published a font in my kit and pasted the javascript link in my HTML head.

It asked for my domain name. But is it possible to make it work locally on my computer?

Will answer my own question. Found out on their site

"Using Typekit while developing locally You can specify up to ten domains in your Kit Editor’s Kit Settings, including development domains, subdomains, and “localhost” if you're running a web server on your own machine. Typekit will not work on pages that you open from your file system (file://); this is because Typekit requires a referrer, which a local file system cannot send."
