No. Evolution is a GNOME app, and therefore respects GNOME settings only
and does not know about KDE specific solutions. This one will work
*only*, if KDE alters the users .desktop files in $XDG_DATA_HOME
(freedesktop.org spec).

Regarding "works for Calc but not Writer": It's not the extension that
matters, but the MIME Type -- which happens to be set for the attachment
by the senders MUA. This means, you might need to add the MIME Type the
sender uses to your list of known MIME Types...
