It can.

"As card is played" occurs before "as action is announced".

The DI would be played before Seduction could be.

The acting minion jumped the gun, so the situation should be
undone (pick up the Seduction, return it to hand, return card
drawn to replace Seduction to the library and, if no one has
peeked at the library to know that Seduction was there, shuffle
the library).

Then continue with the DI being played on the Parity Shift.
