Are there any translation APIs that you could use to download and work with within the windows phone framework? This is without having to call to an outside service via the web.

Not at this point.
Why? Due to their nature, direct translation on the device would require a lot of effort, not because you're just translating word-for-word, but also have to consider language semantics and grammar. You could, of course, roll your own solution, but at that point your marginal benefit will be reduced to zero compared to using an existing web API.
