In theory yes, in practice no. Those other airlines need a ticket office or GSA in SA to issue the ticket. If there is none of those, the airline can't issue the ticket. That is why there is a hunt for a SA based travel agency that might be able to do what you desire. A travel agency needs to charge for this service and need expertise to deal with the airlines. None have come forward so far.
