It depends on a few factors. First, what is the quality of the power bank? If it supports USB-C and has fast charging, it will likely be able to keep up with the Deck's power draw. However, it also depends on the game you're playing. Something AAA that drops your battery life to <2 hours may use more power than the bank can provide. That said, as long as you're taking breaks and putting the system to sleep, the bank should be able to catch up.
The Deck has a 5300mAh capacity. Most high quality power banks are around 10000, so you should be able to double or triple the battery life.
