If you upgrade to a 10xx series card you should be able to. The hardware in the GP10x series cards allows 10bit NVENC encoding.

The microarchitecture of the GeForce 10 series is named Pascal, after the 17th century French mathematician Blaise Pascal, and was presented on May 6, 2016.[3]

Nvidia has announced that the Pascal GP100 GPU will feature four High Bandwidth Memory stacks, allowing a total of 16GB HBM2 on the highest-end models,[4] 16 nm technology,[2] Unified Memory and NVLink.[5]

New Features in GP10x:

CUDA Compute Capability 6.0(GP100 only), 6.1(GP102, GP104, GP106)
DisplayPort 1.4
HDMI 2.0b
Fourth generation Delta Color Compression
PureVideo Feature Set H hardware video decoding HEVC Main10(10bit), Main12(12bit) & VP9 hardware decoding(GM200 & GM204 did not support HEVC Main10/Main12 & VP9 hardware decoding)[6]
HDCP 2.2 support for 4K DRM protected content playback & streaming(Maxwell GM200 & GM204 lack HDCP 2.2 support, GM206 supports HDCP 2.2)[7]
NVENC HEVC Main10 10bit hardware encoding
