Yes, Secure Boot will not work, however, grubx64.efi happily uses grub.cfg that is placed in the same directory and you can instruct GRUB to load modules from other location, here is my config:
search.fs_uuid E495-1F0C boot
set prefix=($boot)'/EFI/ubuntu'
insmod luks
insmod gcry_sha256
cryptomount -u 739967f19770470aa0318d8b8bcdb350
search.fs_uuid 5170aca4-061a-4c6c-ab00-bd7fc8ae6030 root cryptouuid/739967f19770470aa0318d8b8bcdb350
set prefix=($root)'/root/boot/grub'
configfile $prefix/grub.cfg

Title:
Grub 2 fails to boot a kernel on a luks encrypted volume with Secure
Boot enabled
Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Booting in UEFI Secure Boot requires that all code loaded up to and
including the OS kernel be signed. This includes all grub modules.
This is accomplished by including selected modules in a single signed
binary. However, the modules required for grub to use an encrypted
volume have been omitted from the binary package and therefore Ubuntu
cannot boot from an encrypted volume with Secure Boot enabled. This
can be corrected as follows.
The debian/build-efi-images file needs to have lines 136-140 changed from:
GRUB_MODULES="$CD_MODULES
lvm
mdraid09
mdraid1x
"
to:
GRUB_MODULES="$CD_MODULES
cryptodisk
