IsVTune capable of generating a call graph for a Windows kernel device driver?

Call graph can only be used on user-level binaries. Sampling, however, is capable of collecting data from the entire system, including drivers. This is the typical tool used by driver developers to profile their code. Because of the instrumentation, call graph would significantly impact a driver.
