Not in this universe. Go see any HS physics teacher if you must....but it physically impossible.

You could chop the shooter's arm off with a machete after the release and it couldn't possibly affect the shot.

This seems like one big discussion over semantics and wording.

I think too many get caught up in language of how something is described than whether it is a solid practice to call a foul.
