Yes. When a monster performs a Pick Target action on an AI or S card, it ignores all other targeting conditions and picks the survivor with the token, wherever they stand (blind spot, behind terrain, even out of reach). The token does not affect cards that pick several targets or all survivors, nor reactions on hit locations that name the attacker. Only one survivor holds it at a time, and it lasts until another survivor gains it or the end of the next monster turn unless a card says otherwise (the White Lion's critical-wound versions are permanent).
