Depends on what you mean when you say "twinax hub".

If you are referring to the "twinax brick" which attaches to the twinax
controller on your system, where the 8 twinax "ports" get separated from
each other, then no, it will not work without that.

If you are referring to a "star panel", which takes a single twinax "port"
and splits it into 7 different cables, one for each device address, then
yes, it will work without that.  The star panel's only purpose is to set
up the twinax so that you can cable to each device separately instead of
having to daisy chain the devices.

I've used cat-5 with baluns attached directly to the twinax brick many,
many times, it works fine.
