The motor wires could. Depending on your servo amps, they may emit a great deal of RFI on the output if there is no filtering. These wires would then have sharp transitions of up to 100 V or so at tens of KHz. If the motor wires are shielded, and the encoder wires are also shielded, then this MAY work, but be aware of interference.
