Generally, yes. Civil disobedience is defined as the refusal to comply with certain laws or governmental demands, often as a form of peaceful protest. Mr. Rudolph's actions of hiding out and refusing to comply with capture could be considered an act of civil disobedience, as his refusal was intended to draw attention to his beliefs and oppose the laws he disagreed with.
