You would need to ensure that the impedances are exactly the same (ie. Both
75 ohm, as is the standard for S/PDIF coax connections). In a passive sense,
you wouldn't be able to achieve this and that basically means that the whole
transmission would fail miserably. There would be no communication. You can
take a chance and see, but of all times that I've seen people try, they've
never had any luck.
Once again, this would require the use of buffers, and in the case of a
digital signal it's a little simpler with the use of a non-inverting buffer
from the 74HCT family.

Is it possible to accomplish a similar trick with a digital signal?
