I think not. Check out 9-9-3.

Don't think there should be an exception....if this is a rule then give the O the benefit of the doubt on a tipped ball that goes into the backcourt...I have the casebook in front of me but it doesn't cover this rule there..
Again, can someone post the actual rulebook explanation...if they have it...

The "exception" is there because of the NFHS definition of team control. B can't have team control, and A doesn't have control during a throw-in.
9-9-3:
"A player from the team not in control (defensive player or during a jump ball or throw-in) may legally jump from his/her frontcourt, secure control of the ball with both feet off the floor and return to the floor with one or both feet in the backcourt. The player may make a normal landing and it makes no difference whether the first foot down is in the frontcourt or backcourt."
