No, it will not work.

The bandwidth command only set the reference bandwidth used by some QoS
mechanism or routing protocol. It will not be used to limit throughput.

The best option for you is to use shaping instead.

policy-map SHAPE
 class class-default
  shape average 768000
!
interface FastEthernet0/1
! Desc to WAN
! set reference bandwidth to reflect the correct bandwidth, not required
 bandwidth 768
! Shapping is required
 service-policy output SHAPE

Subject: QOS-Fast Enet Port

I have a Fast Ethernet port connected to a internal wan with 768K
available.
Can I control 768K worth of bandwidth on the FE port by setting the
bandwidth to 768?
Will this work?
