What does one newton meter represent in terms of energy?

One newton meter is the energy transferred when a force of one newton acts through a displacement of one metre in the force's direction, and it is dimensionally equal to one joule (1 N·m = 1 J).

How is one metric horsepower hour defined?

One metric horsepower hour is the energy delivered by sustaining one metric horsepower (735.49875 watts) for one hour, equivalent to about 2,647,795.5 joules.

Can I use this converter for torque values expressed in newton meter?

No. Since newton meter can indicate torque or energy, only energy values should be converted using this tool.
