Yes. See the proof of Proposition 110.101 in Pisier's book. The idea is simple: if you start from any factorization $uv$, by the polar decomposition you can assume that both maps are diagonal in an orthonormal basis. Averaging these diagonal maps over all permutations of the basis does not increase the cb norm, and yields maps that are multiple of the identity.
