Is It Possible to Sign Libraries (DLLs) from msys2 used in other Open Source/FOSS software to avoid Microsoft Code Integrity Blocking the DLLs?

Microsoft Security is slowly but surely, as part of a long term plan, to require Developers to sign their software (executables, DLLs, etc) with Authenticode. Otherwise Microsoft Code Integrity will blocked unsigned DLLs used from third party projects - rendering the overall application broken or functionality broken.

Is it possible for me to apply Authenticode to DLLs from msys2 into my product so that my Open Source/FOSS software is not blocked by Microsoft Code Integrity on Windows?
