Yes. The cup is causing air to become trapped between the pavement and the tire and result is usually a hum or drone.

What causes the right front tire to whine at speeds of 60 on a 1997 dodge Dakota?

Bad hub/bearing assembly. Replace it. 1) Cupped or feathered tire wear. If the noise moves when rotating tires, it's the tire. You may also need to replace the shocks or get a wheel alignment to prevent further tire damage. 2) Bad hub bearing. If the vehicle is 4WD, you can raise the truck off the ground (be careful and safe) and drive at speed to see if it makes the noise. If it makes the noise off the ground it is bad hub bearing, as a tire makes no noise off the ground. Sometimes the hub bearing won't either as it has no load on it, but that's usually only the case when it makes a rumble or growl noise.
