I mean if I take a shield and Necromantic Aegis for example... Will they be able to block?

Yes. Necromantic Aegis gives block chance to all your minions (assuming you have a shield with block chance).

Most staves have block chance as an implicit modifier, which they will have when animated.

An animated Wings of Entropy can block because it counts as dual wielding, which grants an innate block chance bonus.
