Yes. The Cookiebot by Usercentrics plugin for WordPress supports multiple legal frameworks by allowing you to set up separate banner configurations for different regions or countries.
To do this, enable “Multiple Configurations” under the Multiple Configurations tab in the Cookiebot plugin settings, then add banner configurations for the specific regions you want to support.
This setup uses separate Domain Groups for each configuration and the data-georegions attribute in the Cookiebot script to display the correct banner based on the visitor’s location — for example, one for GDPR and another for CCPA/CPRA. You can run multiple configurations, as long as only your primary Domain Group contains your actual domain.
Google Consent Mode is an open API that enables your website to run all Google services, such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Google Ads, based on the consent status of your end users. It helps you make the best use of visitors’ data and consent and automatically signals the consent status of your website users to all Google services. Google Consent Mode is enabled by default in the Usercentrics Cookiebot plugin.
Usercentrics Cookiebot is fully integrated with the WP Consent API. When your visitors give consent using Usercentrics Cookiebot, the consent will automatically be sent to the WP Consent API.

Consent Mode lets Google tags adapt to each visitor’s choice.

After stumbling around for 15 to 20 minutes, I realized this system is quite complex. It turns out that you need to invest a significant amount of money to get it to work properly. I usually prefer to set things up on a free trial basis to see if I like them before committing to a subscription. Unfortunately, this isn’t an option here. If you want to avoid wasting a good chunk of your time, I would recommend steering clear of it.

Bait & Switch Free Plan – Only 1000 sessions – Don’t Waste Your Time!
All the info on their website indicates that the service is free for 1 domain with up to 50 pages. But after installing the plugin and signing up for the free plan you get a message to say it is only free up to 1000 sessions, which is way too limited. This feels very sneaky and scammy and leaves a bad taste. I’m happy to pay for services, but not to a company that uses tactics like this.
