No, since you are intentionally asking that at least a QUORUM of the RFs are written. So in your scenario, only 1 node is up of 3, and QUORUM value is 2. So that operation will fail, no HH is made.
A read won't succedd either, since you are asking that the data to be returned must be validated at least by 2 nodes. HH only takes place on write operations and when the OP succeded because the CL can be satisfied and other replicas are down. Then the coordinator uses HH to perform the updates on the failed replicas (as soon as they get up).
