Dry carbon has resin in it just like "wet carbon", the only difference is which stage of the process that resin is added to the cloth and how well controlled the fiber:resin ratio is. Depending on how the wet layup is done, the "dry" part could have additional vacuum/autoclave curing steps but these days it's hugely common to use vacuum bagging even on wet layup parts.
So short answer, yes. If they use a resin system that can fail due to UV and a cheap clear, it will yellow.
