I assume yes. Almost all modern processors have something like that. Intel ME & AMD PSP are on all of our desktop machines, so it's safe to guess that any modern mobile processor will have the same.
My real question with Pixels though, is does the Tensor G2 collect your IP and other data like the Snapdragon processors do? Software replacement is great, but when the hardware is still spying on you it’s not really going to help to put a new OS on the phone.
