Yes, absolutely, message queuing is an important part of back end architecture. If you happen to use python, "Celery" is an easy way to start using "RabbitMQ".

Thanks for your suggestion. I am comfortable with nodejs so I guess I will find a good package for RabbitMQ

I guess so, but that's a weird question. It's not even a programming language and you can learn most of those in a week or so. It's just a simple library, learning everything about it should take max few days. You can probably learn it as you go whenever it becomes necessary.
