To be honest, I'm not sure what you mean. First, what is "hover" here? Do you mean with your mouse?

Perhaps you could create a mapping within vimtex-toc filetypes? Labeled stuff typically has as its text only the label, right? So, you could just copy that. Something like this:

autocmd FileType vimtex-toc nnoremap 02Wvt(by

You may want to experiment with this. The idea is:

0                         go to beginning of line
 2W                       jump two WORDS to get to start of label
   vt(                    enter visual mode and move to the paranthesis
      b                   go back to last character of the label
       y                  yank selected text
