Can I remotely work from my home country office if the lottery/visa is not approved?

Hi folks, can any one please clarify my doubt. For example, if we apply to a job based out of the US location and get the offer. Can we remotely work for that job from the home branch and then move to abroad when H1b is picked? If it is not possible, can we ask companies to map to another team which is based out of our location? #swe #amazon #microsoft #h1b
