If you added it to FindMy, yes. Mark a device as lost in Find My on Mac - Apple Support


Otherwise, there is no way to lock it.

No. I had it in my apartment and a roommate thought it was his and took it to his parents as he bought a similar computer at same time. When he was at his parents, someone stole it. I just want it locked so nobody can use. I have my invoice. Insurance doesnt know who to blame. I just want Apple to lock it. Is it possible?
