Yes.
Wildshape works like polymorph except where noted.
Polymorph grants you the target form's [type].
The target form is of type [animal].
Animal growth works only on creatures of type [animal].
Therefor, you can use animal growth on a wildshaped druid.

At one time I had considered not allowing it. However, given the limitations of animals, this is not really a game stopper. A bigger animal, even at higher levels where a druid can take on some pretty powerful dinosaurs, is still not the worst a druid can do. And size can easily become a liability in most adventuring environments.
