Yeah. Like, I'm pretty sure JEJ gave them permission to recreate his voice. And even so, it's not like it's a hard voice to recreate. They got a different guy to voice him in Fallen Order, for example. But because of the sound mixing and such involved in making Vader's voice all robotic and deep, you can hardly tell the difference.

Also, Disney got into trouble in the past because when they made TailSpin, Baloo's voice actor was so close to the original Jungle Book actor that the family sued for royalties. It's why the show never lasted more than a season.
