No.
DSSI uses SubD HD 50 connectors and that is not VHDCI. And probably
cou can't use SCSI cables at all. SCSI and DSSI use a different wiring
sheme for signal and GND lines. Normaly you should have twisted pairs
of lines, one signal, one GND. Due to the pinout differences you may
end up with two signals on one twisted pair when using a SCSI cable for
DSSI.
