In principle, yes. More important than the choice of cable would therefore be to know how it is to be connected. HDCP "compatibility" can only be assessed for an entire system, from the source of the signal to the display device. For it to work, the USB-C port used for it must offer "Display Port Alternate Mode" or "HDMI Alternate Mode", which may be missing on older and low-end laptops, for example. Simply put, the cable is (almost) never to blame if there is a problem with playback protection. The cable does not have the technical ability to influence HDCP. Specifically: If a (passive) HDMI cable is damaged or unsuitable, it will affect the signal transmission regardless of whether the signal is protected with HDCP or not.
