Based on my peronal experience with the dealer trying to program it, I tend to say no if the fob has already been programmed to another car.

No. Once a GM fob is programed to a specific VIN, it can not be de-programed for use in another vehicle. (Note, older GM vehicles did have some fob interchangability... but definately not the C8).
