Yes, alts can ride covenant mounts as long as they are account-wide, meaning that once a covenant mount is unlocked on one character, it can be used by all characters on the same account, regardless of their covenant affiliation. The key requirement is that at least one character on the account must have reached Renown 80 with the respective covenant to unlock the mount for all characters on the account.
