It depends on the driver.

That driver will run higher than you probably need. How high do you want to crossover?

Yes, it will reach that high. The thing is, above a couple hundred Hertz, the walls start to act as reflectors. This makes a few blips in the response curve from self-interference with the boundaries. When you look at averaged response, you can run the woofer way up high but a high-resolution plot will show self-interference notches above 300Hz.
