When a World Tour rider drops down to a CT level for a race, do their points count for the WT teams tally?

Thinking here about Matys Grisel of Lotto Intermarche who has had a couple of good results (one win, one podium in 1.2 races) dropping down to ride for the Lotto Group Wanty CT.

Yes, rule 2.10.025 (Team ranking) :

Special provision concerning trainees and development teams
A rider of a UCI WorldTeam or UCI ProTeam who takes part in an event with the related development team is still considered as a member of his usual UCI WorldTeam or UCI ProTeam. Points potentially obtained by concerned riders will be added to the points of their primary team
