I’d expect so. You have the right to remain silent. You do not have the right to destroy evidence. How is wiping your phone any different from running around your house flushing things?
Because they would be the ones actually entering it, you would just say some numbers out loud.
But probably the smarter thing to do would be to leave the wipe code on a sticky note inside the phone case and hope they try it.
You can also set it to wipe if you don't enter a PIN after a set amount of time.
