Probably could be, if it's polite enough for the situation intended.

is พูดแทรก used when a 3rd party interrupts/butts into a conversation or can it also mean somebody who doesnt let someone else finish (talks over) what they are saying?

That sure is a mouthful to spit out if someone’s interrupting you. It also doesn’t carry ANY emotive value as far as even mild vexation from the person saying it either.![]()
How about giving a Thai translation along the lines of; “I wish you’d wait until I was done speakin’ before you butt in.”?
Then again, that might run counter to the O/P’s request for a “polite” way to couch things in Thai. You might have noticed, politeness ain’t one of my strong suits in English or Thai

Also; not to "pick nits" at the poster known as “DonSena” (especially as their grasp of Thai is leaps and bounds above mine), but I think that word is your sentence is spelled with an น not an ม, like สนทนา.
