The answer appears to be yes… sort of. Since Open Graph is an open protocol of sorts, it’s not meant to be Facebook specific.

When pulling a webpage from an URL, Facebook caches its content for later.

I ran into this same issue. I figured that Tumblr must have some sort of partnership in place with Facebook to get this special treatment ( ip whitelist? special api? ) — so I contacted my former Partnerships Rep at Facebook to enquire. I got to speak with a platform engineer at Facebook about this, … Read more
You have two options. You can either set the og:video to https://www.youtube.com/v/YOUTUBECODE or set the og:url to the YouTube page.
