Of course it can...

The DVI cable carries the same TMDS signal as HDMI. Sound can be
embedded in it. To carry sound you don't need special pins that only
the HDMI connector has

The DVI standard didn't define sound , but as HDMI is compatible you
can carry sound.

I use the DVI cable to connect to my TV because that's all I had
available at the time , and I have sound running.
