No, what you describe is a bypass and it's not considered a crack by the scene. Denuvo has been completely removed from some games, but I don't keep up with the news so I can't say which.
Well there's a scene group called steampunks, who "crack" denuvo games by generating a correct key for the offline version of denuvo (normally if you play a denuvo game offline it'll send you to a website with a key to enter in a game prompt).
Their releases are scene releases, even with denuvo remaining as is.
The bypass "crack" Sephiroth87 is referring to is from (I believe) a non-scene person called baldman.
