My understanding is yes it can. You need to adjust the blocking mode.

Is there a simple way to block individual scripts with uBlock? I’ve only found a simple way to block 3rd or 1st party scripts and frames altogether.
You can use the element zapper or picker to remove individual elements on a page.
I recommend uMatrix for targeted blocking.
So far I understand it's no necessary to use both. You can do everything that Noscript does with uBO.
If you want something like NoScript, the creator of uBlock as another most excellent extension called uMatrix, which offers a dizzying level of granularity!
I used to use uMatrix, but stopped using it because it was discontinued. It might still work, but it stopped getting updated because the dev wanted to focus on uBlock.
uBlock has specific things that it blocks and configurable rules. NoScript just blocks all JS regardless of its purpose.
