Sure. What would Lucius worry about disillusioning Draco? The anti-pure blood wizards don’t have a leg to stand on, unlike theists and atheists.
(Think back—do you recall any good arguments made against pure blood, the theory as opposed to the believers? Rowling assumes we’ll instantly identify pure bloodism == racism, and that’s that. If they think any harder, most people will fall into the usual trap of thinking that exceptions/brilliant-mudbloods like Hermione Granger disprove pure bloodism, which of course they don’t. The history of the Wizarding world is even more consistent with pure bloodism than not!)
It wouldn’t just be about Pure Blood. It would be about not having any abstract loyalties of any sort—Malfoys want to be in charge because it’s more comfortable at the top.
