The House basically plays the role of the prosecution in a Senate trial. So yes they can call witnesses to testify.
But that does not give them the right to breach executive privilege. It would have to go through the courts and in a just world that would require direct first hand evidence. But we all know how roberts and the rest will vote. This is effectively the end of executive privilege.

I’m not sure Mick Mulvaney can claim Executive privelege, as he has already given a press conference where he discussed the issue at length.
