Sure it can. I can show that Bored Ape #99 came from the same contract as Bored Ape #98.

How do you show that the person who created Bored Ape #99 was the person listed and that they signed a contract giving legal rights to the holder of the NFT? All the blockchain is showing you is that someone who held a particular key paid to publish a record. The ways you'd need to establish actual provenance work with or without a blockchain: even a tweet from the artist's account carries more weight.
