Ugh - what an odd question.

Yes, the scorer should only signal when the ball is dead, or when the "offending team" (team A) has posession. In a situation like this, ideally he waits until the ball is dead.

However, not all scorers are that cognizant of the rules and, whether they are authorized to hit the horn or not, the horn still works. If they call you over, and you acknowledge the signal, you have a dead ball and you fix the error then. You, of course, have the option of waiting until the next dead ball.
