Rule is clear. A goal is only scored when a live ball passes through the basket.
When the horn goes, the ball is dead with some exceptions. Primarily, the exceptions involve a try, which is defined as an attempt at one's own basket. Since this is not an attempt at one's own basket, the exceptions do not apply, thus no basket in your scenario.
