If your asking if enemy magic resist can block the poison damage then yes. However due to the damage being rounded, and poison damage ticks being so low, it would be hard to reduce it by any significant amount. Because each stack would have it's own formula. Since rogue poison's base is 1 damage per second, if you have 5 stacks, it will never reduce below 5 damage per second since each stack of 1 damage per second will always round to 1 damage at the lowest. Damage over time also only receives 50% bonus ratio to it's scaling and it does not scale per tick, it's per total damage dealt overtime and rogues poison being only 4 seconds means that the 4 damage over time total is hard to increase significantly with any percentage scaling (however this means additional and true damage would scale it much nicer). So overall it's pretty hard to increase the amount of damage per poison tick to a significant enough number where magic resist would be able to effectively stop it. So it does defend against it, just not very well due to the way poison stacks rather then being counted as 1 buff. Also in general nobody really builds magic resist except warlocks who don't have multi class lol.
