Answer

No. Cursed Sarcophagus can only play units banished by its own play trigger ("When you play this, banish all units from your trash"). A unit banished by the Shadow Clone token's attack trigger was banished by the token's effect, so Cursed Sarcophagus's "[T]: Play a unit banished with this" cannot access it.

Banishment tracking is strictly per-object: each effect can only reference cards banished by its own linked abilities (, ). Same principle as two different banishing cards never sharing their banished pools — the token and the gear are separate sources, so their banished units are separate pools.

Does this answer look correct?
