My friend brought over some glass bottled beer that was room temperature and said that if we wrapped them in wet paper towels and put them in the freezer, they would get cold faster. Is this true?

Yes. The water in the paper towels will chill and freeze quickly,  and since it's both denser than air and held directly against the bottle,  it will help draw heat out of the bottle. 

Its not going to give you an icy beer in minutes,  but it will speed the process along.
