Hmmm......Not in FIBA:
4.1.2 A team member is entitled to play when his name has been entered on the scoresheet before the start of the game and as long as he has neither been disqualified nor committed five (5) fouls. (emphasis added)
Additionally, it is not possible to add a player to the scoresheet by "buying" a technical foul. If the player is not on the sheet when the game starts - they can't play.
