It probably is. The star is catalogued as an UG cataclysmic variable with
a magnitude range of 15v - 17.5v. Past outburst observations list maximum
magnitudes around mag 14.5 (CCD unfiltered). Recurrence time of this
poorly studied object seems to be rather short, although I have not been
able to derive an exact value. Maybe Taichi Kato has more information on
DW Cnc (discovery paper, ...) ?
