No they cannot. They need to prove residency in the country of departure just like everyone else.
However, note that some jurisdictions do allow non-residents to fly to China after a certain period of time has passed. For example, the Seoul Embassy will issue a green code to anyone who has stayed in Korea for over 30 days.
