If they know your passcode, it wouldn't help, according to this support document. Use Lost Mode in Find My iPhone on iCloud.com - Apple Support To get the device out of Lost Mode, they would just need to enter your passcode. However, if you are worried about your content, but are not as worried about getting the iPhone back, you can remotely wipe the device to protect your data. Problem is, at that point, you can no longer track the device.
