Most likely. The one caveat is whether it is an older, pre-1995/96(?), 8 speed freehub body without the relief at the end of the splines. The relief is there for an 11t, or 10t, first position cog.

Keep the lock rings identified, IIRC some !!T lock rings are smaller than 12T ones.

I'd forgotten that caveat about going to an 11T cog, but I remembered Sheldon (RIP)
Probably not an issue, but good to check.
