Yes Trochus commonly spawn in captivity. Nice to find the babies every so often! I unfortunately have some predators which seem to hunt them down in my display tank. Hopefully you can build a self sustaining population!

I have these everywhere in my sump. So far, one have successfully grown into a normal size.

But i find the little white eggs all over the glass can be annoying.
