Obviously, you can change the reference 'self', but that will not 
change the instance being initialized (i.e. it will not make 'window1' 
an instance of 'Test'). I barely used 'GtkBuilder', but the class 
attribute of the object tag suggests that you could replace 'GtkWindow' 
by 'Test'. I know neither if that would actually work with a class 
exterior to GTK nor how that would interact with a subclass written in 
Python, though...
