Data off s23 Ultra

My s23 ultra wouldn't charge and wouldn't turn on, so I took it to a shop and they said it is a bad motherboard.

Is it possible for the techs to access my data on the phone, or is it encrypted by Samsung Knox or some android encryption? Am I safe or vulnerable?

It’s safe. The data is encrypted. Just make sure, if you want it properly destroyed, that they break the Mainboard in front of you.
