Is existence of Stream as final co-algebra for the suitable functor enough to write functions into equality of streams by co-induction in ExtMLTT?

Suppose we work inside MLTT with equality reflection (extensional MLTT). Assume I postulate existence of Streams as final co-algebra for the suitable functor. Is that enough to prove the bisimulation ...

By HOL I mean something like inference rules of HOL Light with the 3 axioms of infinity, extensionality and choice ($\varepsilon$ operator). By predicative dependent types, I am thinking of MLTT + W-...
