With kinetic rounds yes. Something like a M829A1 or even just some plain bullets could hit a truck and pass throught without hitting anything of vital and trasmitting little energy to the target, thus doing little damage. However large,
blast-fragmentation warheads which are typical of air to ground ordnance are definitively bad news for softskins.
Cars don't look good after an Hellfire hit for example.

Note that decoys are often used in war, the use of trucks in this manner might be interpreted as such.
