No, this isn't a valid XPath expression. You're mixing XPath syntax with
regular expression syntax. You need

<xsl:template match="mets:div[matches(@LABEL, '^Pagina [0-9]+$')]"/>

The second argument to matches can be any regular expression (conforming to
the rules for regular expressions defined in the XPath specification),
including of course regular expressions like '[A-Z]*'.
