The physical medium isn't directional, so there's no reason to assume it would not transmit and receive. A coax cable is equivalent to three wires with better isolation from the environment (and with one "wire" usually used for ground).
There's an asymmetry in commercial broadband over coax, but Im not sire why that is precisely. Perhaps someone familiar with DOCSIS etc. could say.
